A STATEMENT 

In justice to those persons who have desired to purchase the principles found in 
the " Balliett Philosophy of Number Vibration," or to co-operate in building differ- 
ent kinds of books upon its structure, to those the founder states no right has been 
granted in any country to such persons. And if there are books built upon it they 
are an infringement of the copyright, and must be discontinued. Lecturers and 
teachers are heartily welcome to teach its principles, but the Balliett publications 
must be used as text books.

This book is heartily dedicated to the thinking mind, ?nu that goes 
deeply beneath the surface into the heart of everything, and through num- 
ber Vibration sets free their Voice that they may speak.

PREFACE. 

TO comprehend these lessons scientifically 
the author would advise the student to 
first study the principles of Number- Vi- 
bration found in the book "Success Through 
Strength of Vibration: A System of Num- 
bers as Taught by Pythagoras ;" also "Philoso- 
phy of Numbers; Their Tone and Color." 

Many systems of numbers have been de- 
veloped from different sources, the Kabbala 
usually being the basis. But every system is 
different from every other system. This, as 
you know, has caused confusion and unbelief 
in the Science of Number- Vibration. These 
lessons bring you a system of numbers that is 
as accurate and as scientific as the system of 
musical harmony in use, today. It is founded, 
as other systems are, upon the diget of num- 
bers from i to 9. This is the correct teaching 
of Pythagoras, but from this point and finding 
the name and birth digit this system diverges 
from all others. The Balliett System of 
Number- Vibration is founded upon the analy- 

ix 



x PREFACE 

sis of all words. Through this we find where 
they belong and by their keynote they speak 
their answer and tell their color notes and 
character. It is also founded upon the trinities 
making it musically scientific. If music has 
a scientific basis, then so has this system of 
Number- Vibration, as it is built upon exactly 
the same foundation. Pythagoras, in the Vlth 
Century before Christ, gave to the world his 
theory of the "Music of the Spheres" when he 
gave to the Greeks the fundamental principles 
of music now in use. If one part is true, this 
is true. You can prove to your satisfaction 
the basic principle of the One Source of all 
colors, sounds, and all things the eye sees, the 
ear hears, and the desire the heart longs for 
by the analysis of its mental structure. Each 
separate thing will speak to you and tell you 
its message if you will learn its universal 
language.

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE DE- 
VELOPMENT OF THINGS OF THE 
OUTSIDE WORLD AND THE DE- 
VELOPMENT OF ONE'S SELF. 



DID you ever seriously think about how 
few things we are positively sure of in 
life? Even the identity of our parents 
rests upon the assurance of others. We do not 
of ourselves know the normal arrangement of 
the organs of our body, nor may they function 
as we think they do. 

We are not sure the Sun will rise tomorrow 
or that today's Sun will stay in its place in 
the Heavens. In everything we trust to the 
fidelity of Nature, the wonderful Revealer, who 
is man's friend or his enemy according to his 
attitude of mind. 

Nature is always ready to assist man to 
become a Master, but man sometimes spurns 
her exact mathematical methods, and we realize 
he has passed through the centuries, some- 
times a Master of Science but a weakling in 

Manhood. 

ii 



12 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

The things he makes when not constructed 
according to Nature's Law of Harmony are 
useless; but sometimes his inventions have 
touched Nature and been made according to 
the Principle of Harmony, and when so adap- 
ted Nature gladly turns her forces into them 
and he has the Telephone, the Telegraph, 
Steam Power, Wireless Telegraphy. 

Man, the inventor of machinery made har- 
monious to Nature's Law, of ttimes stands out- 
side of the flowing stream of God's own 
strength, a cramped creature, with shattered 
nerves. and tired brain, while the force of 
Nature, never complaining, never tiring, turns 
the machinery which does the work for a mul- 
titude, asking merely for a body it can use to 
do its work. 

Will you with patience and trust try to fol- 
low me in a most difficult explanation — that of 
showing the difference between man's own de- 
velopment and his development of things? It 
sometimes takes hours for thoughtful men and 
women to grasp the difference between the 
work of man's brain and the work of his hands. 
Then the effect of Nature upon Man himself, 
as his work and himself is so closely united 
as to make us confuse the real with the unreal. 

A moment's thought will assure us that the 



DEVELOPMENT QF WORLD AND SELF 13 

things we see with our eyes and hear with our 
ears belong to Nature's realm ; and that which 
had a beginning must also have an end, when 
its cycle of time is finished. It must then go 
back to its original condition, as no doubt this 
planet will also do. 

We have proof of this impermanence of 
matter in the stock dealer's experiments. He 
can take a pigeon, and by using harmonious 
strains and thereby touching the Principle of 
Harmony, he is able to borrow Nature's force. 
The pigeon reincarnates as a Dove of marvel- 
lous beauty; but if he ceases his effort in 
keeping the right strains together, the Dove 
again bcomes a pigeon; only the continuous 
effort of man in holding the things together 
which Nature demands can keep the Dove 
from losing its beauty and fineness of charac- 
ter. This plainly shows Nature's growth and 
development of things that fade and perish. 
Things which have a beginning must have an 
end. 

As Man is part of the Living God he has no 
beginning and no end. The only part which 
shows a beginning and end is his body, which 
is one part of his system. When he develops 
sufficiently he will no longer be in bondage to 
his body, but will be able to function where he 



i 4 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

wishes, and to take a body from the elements 
best suited to his use. 

The angels must weep over the scarred and 
seared bodies of humanity, when the cycle filled 
often with the mistakes of past lives, empties 
itself with the strength of the God-power sleep- 
ing in this polluted covering of flesh. 

If vibrating 8-9-22, or 11- the individual 
arises alone and mutely faces the result of his 
disgusting past and undertakes to fill a new 
cycle with actions belonging to a higher life. 
Men will say he has become regenerated, con- 
verted, -or use some other term to show the 
change which has come to him. 

If in his system lower numbers prevail such 
as 4-5-6-7 the Father, of theHelpless will send 
some one to hel|J|fiim m nisclimb, — some one 
who will hold, shelter and protect him. 

Xo person has ever anything to meet alone 
in life, unless he has already developed the in- 
nate strength to meet it. The sheltering arms 
always protect the weak, giving rise to the say- 
ing that there is a special Providence which 
guards children and imbeciles. 

No event ever presents itself in life which 
the individual has not stored up strength to 
meet. If it were not so, the event would have 
been postponed until some time in the future, 



DEVELOPMENT OF WORLD AND SELF 15 

the test would not have been given at that 
particular time. 

Life never ceases to be a school, from the 
cradle to the grave, and Nature's God is the 
Master. 

To tell us what grade we are in, and to show 
us how to grow in our own special way, is the 
object for which this book is written. Were 
it to tell you what to say and what to do, and 
you trusted it and obeyed it blindly, you would 
be doing what the pigeon fancier did to change 
the pigeon into a dove; making, perhaps a 
faster growth, but not a growth of permanent 
value. 

This is the difference between working with 
things and working from the Ego or Self. 
Better to stumble, fall and rise with added 
knowledge than to advance mentally and 
spiritually and leave the material part of being 
still sleeping, because it does not know how to 
accompany its two companions, soul and spirit. 
In this case the body would stumble, shrink 
and grow old, not because the soul and spirit 
do not love it, but because it does not know. 

The centuries have lost the secret of Elijah 
who overcame fire and rode in a chariot of that 
element ; and of Moses and many other masters 
of the Old Testament. 



16 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

It was in the Second and Third Centuries 
A. D. after the greatest of all the Masters had 
come that the supernormal was lost in the sub- 
normal, and now what is today called normal 
is really sub-normal. 

Super-normal qualities today are the result 
of an harmonious body — one that can give help 
to the soul; when soul and body meet and the 
Spirit blends them as one there flows out the 
essence of the experience and it is stored as 
soul growth. 

This means that all men should have the 
inner hearing as in telepathy. They should 
be able to see the auras of people and things — 
their own soul being their aid and teacher. 

The time is approaching when the world 
will not be satisfied with less than supernormal 
qualities. There is an elongated gamut of sight 
and hearing, and when we can function on 
these planes we shall be able to see and hear 
things which now seem marvelous and the 
masters will come again into evidence. 

In climbing a high ladder, we mount round 
by round, taking one step at a time with care 
not to disturb the balance. 

We have the trinities of 1-2-3 and of 8-9- 
11 or 22, These cling together and work or 
should work in co-operation. These are num- 



DEVELOPMENT OF WORLD AND SELF 17 

bers, but these numbers represent the indivi- 
duality of people — the numbers simply speak 
for them in the Universal World. 

The Trinities 

The First Trinity which we generally call 
the lower trinity, is expressed by the numbers 
1-2-3. The 1 expresses Spirit and always 
gives the incentive to action, it gives the initia- 
tive. 2 makes the collection of material which 
Spirit needs to use in its operations. The 3 
expresses the work of the entire trinity. 

The color of the 1 is Flame; of the 2, gold; 
of the 3 a Flame of Gold. 

This Trinity is at the base of all action. It 
is the creative power. Without a harmonious 
expression of this Trinity in any number, there 
is a lack. It is somewhat in the nature of elec- 
tricity, of whose workings we know little more 
than the results. 

People of limited development see the opera- 
tion of the Trinity, and without thinking about 
it, take it as a matter of course. Instead of 
using it consciously, they let it use them. 

When they have advanced to where they are 
expressed by one of the master numbers, 8-9- 
22-1 1 they realize what this Trinity is, and con- 



18 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

sciously work with it, and try to use its force 
in harmony with Nature. So when people have 
reached this stage of realization expressed by 
8-9-22-1 1 we say they belong to the Higher 
Trinity. 1 is expressed in 8 and 11, 2 is ex- 
pressed in 22. 3 is expressed in 9. These high 
vibrating numbers no longer go through the 
world blindly, being buffeted on all sides, but 
they consciously work with Nature, and try 
to help out the Divine Plan. 

Reasoning from analogy, we know there 
must be a Third Trinity, higher than either of 
these, but we do not yet know what it is. 

Infant humanity was first given the Religion 
of the Law Giver, Jehovah, the Holy Spirit; 
in this religion they were told definitely what 
they should and should not do. If they did this, 
they would be punished; if they did that they 
would be rewarded. It was a religion suited 
to the needs of the Infant Class of humanity. 

Later, when humanity had attained to the 
stature of men, Christ came, and brought us a 
Religion of Love. He taught us that God, the 
Father, is Love, and taught us of the Brother- 
hood of Man, and gave as the highest ideal in 
our dealings with our fellow men, the feeling 
of Friendship. So to this time we have had 
the Religion of the Holy Spirit, and the Re- 



DEVELOPMENT OF WORLD AND SELF 19 

ligion of the Son. There remains to be ex- 
pressed on Earth, the Religion of the Father. 
What that will be, no man at present living, 
can more than surmise. 

It is probable that the Third Trinity will not 
come into expression until mankind is ready 
for the Religion of the Father. 

So what concerns us of the present is these 
two Trinities which we have described, — the 
First Trinity of action, expressed by 1-2-3, an ^ 
the Higher Trinity, expressed in the numbers 
8-9-22-1 1. 



TAKEN FROM BALLIETT'S "SUCCESS 
THROUGH VIBRATION." 



NO one is out of place. Our highest part 
chose the path in life by which we en- 
tered the world. The individualized 
spirit, called the Soul of Man, knew what ex- 
perience it needed when it took upon itself the 
mystical substance called the body, in order 
to perfect itself in the Christ life, and chose 
the vib'ration which would draw to itself the 
experiences needful for his highest spiritual 
growth. Thus he chose the rate of vibration 
best suited to his need and in order that the 
intellect might comprehend it, attached the in- 
tellectual form of numbers. 

It must now be plain that these numbers 
which we are going to find are not an acci- 
dental gift, but were decided upon by our high- 
est spiritual nature. 

To live our true life, the life our higher 
nature desires, we must keep our thoughts upon 
the keynote and follow the path our spirit has 
chosen. If we do this we will find that what 
seem like sorrows are friends designed to help 

20 



SUCCESS THROUGH VIBRATION 21 

us overcome some weak point in our moral na- 
ture; and if we keep our eyes upon the great 
Trinity of Spirit with hearts in the silence and 
hands in the world, we will not fall into the 
vibration below our own where we will be torn 
with discords and disease, but will experience 
to the full the harmony and joy of living. 

Pythagoras says every letter of the alphabet 
has its own rate vibration and color. He di- 
vided numbers in this way: 



11 

1 22 9 

2 8 



3 7 

4 6 



into odd and even ; into limited and unlimited, 
and gave the preference to odd numbers. But 
we consider all of them necessary. 

This system of numbers is founded upon 
Pythagoras' Ten Fundamental Laws of Oppo- 
sites which should be carefully studied, as 
they are the key. 

Individual Lives, as we see them, move as 
do the pendulum of clocks. Some sway with 
broad, full sweeps from one extreme side to 



22 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

the other, while others move in a more limited 
compass. All these clocks fulfill their mis- 
sions as time-tellers. Developed souls vibrate 
to strong numbers, and their deeds are marked 
by the world as good or bad. The smaller 
sweeps are less noticed, yet they may be mak- 
ing strong vibrations, which will be expressed 
by different names and numbers. 

There are as many periods in one's life as 
there are parts in the baptismal name, includ- 
ing the Mother's name before marriage. 

Read each part oi the name separately : find 
value according to the letters in the name. 
Then find the sum of the figures comprising 
each name and the digit. Read each period in 
regular order, according to the vibrations in 
each name. The digit of the whole name is 
the most important, as it shows the quality of 
vibration the person was born with, the name 
now used, as how the world regards him at 
the present time. 

The digit of birth path shows what part in 
the great chorus of life they come to take. It 
can not be changed. It must be met. It can 
be made harmonious or its opposite. 

Every life has its own song. That it should 
unconsciously sing all the way through life — 
it does this so long as there exists in the in- 



SUCCESS THROUGH VIBRATION 23 

dividual a desire to reach its ideals. Obstacles 
may be placed in its pathway, but so long as 
the higher leads, the song goes on and mingles 
with the melody of all things that are vibrat- 
ing their higher nature. It is this that clears 
the atmosphere of inharmony and attracts 
spiritual and material gifts. These gifts can 
not be separated, as the individual's holiest vi- 
bration has called them. Life is then a song 
of joy and burdens disappear. 

To do this, find your birth vibration. This 
will show the part your higher nature wants 
developed. Accept its experiences as friends; 
when met and harmonized you free a glad note 
that is added to your infinite song of life. 

If Mother's maiden name added, weakens 
the vibration of baptismal name, its weakness 
must rather be met and overcome, than held 
in abeyance. 

To find your own numbers divide the alpha- 
bet into nine parts, thus:

The digit of John is 2 
" " " Ellicott 6 

Add these to find his key- 
note, which is 8 

This vibration of 8 shows the character or 
attainment of his soul when coming to earth. 
To find what he desired to overcome and the 
part in life he chose to fill, is found in the time 
of his birth. This shows his path in life — his 
active working vibration. In it are the experi- 
ences his higher self desired to meet. When 
met and overcome his character strengthens 
aqd finds expression in readjusted name that 
vibrates to higher, stronger numbers. The 
growth is not made until this desire is present. 

John Ellicott was born October 30, 1877. 
October is the 10th month of which the digit 
is 1. The 30th day gives the digit 3. The 
numbers of the year added give 23 of which 
the digit is 5. So we have the numbers 1 plus 
3 plus 5 equals 9. 

To make it more plain : — 

Oct. is 10th month, add to find the digit 1 

o 

Digit of Oct. is 1

So John Ellicott, born October 30, 1877, 
stands thus : 

Name number 2 plus 6 equals 8. 

Birth number 1 plus 3 plus 5 equals 9. 

We will now from these numbers read John 
Ellicott's character and capabilities. 



SUCCESS THROUGH VIBRATION 27 

He should be an independent, cheerful 
worker in the so-called higher walks of life. 

John vibrates to 2 and this vibration is the 
dividing line between spirit and matter. It 
expresses the feminine or intuitive nature. 
The most highly developed persons with this 
number are those who listen and receive, and 
from the great mass of what seems good and 
evil, assort and place and bring both into har- 
mony. They are great factors in politics, be- 
ing moulders of the minds of others. 

In the name "J omi " we have the one vowel 
"o." This letter shows masculine quality and 
is an emblem of strength and self-centeredness. 
John, the disciple of Christ, leaned upon the 
Master's breast at supper, yet in this depend- 
ent attitude he occupied the place of honor. 
"O" is always a money-making letter. His 
last name, Ellicott, vibrates to 6, which is the 
highest number of the workers below the 
Trinity or strong numbers, which are 8, 9, 11 
and 22. He is a busy worker from choice al- 
ways. When active he is very active and when 
he is resting thoroughly enjoys it as a luxury 
he has earned. 

If he once knows that one of his chief attrac- 
tions consists in being a cheerful worker, he 
will be much beloved. The first vowel of his 



28 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

last name "e" shows him to be a man given to 
research with a tendency to delve into the so- 
called mysteries of life. He will be apt to in- 
herit money, as the digit of his whole name is 
8 which shows that money will always come 
to supply his need. It also shows a man of 
reason and excellent judgment— a man to be 
relied upon in business. He is not an investi- 
gator by inheritance, but as the digit of his 
birth is 9, he has a capacity for understanding 
many things which seem hidden from weaker 
natures. He is a man who chooses to live at 
his highest, no matter how many mistakes he 
may make. He has chosen a hard path in life 
because his birth number is higher than his 
name number, which represents the material 
he has to work with. He is working in the 9 
vibration while his number is the more material 
8 ; so no matter what he expresses to the world, 
if he is living at his highest, he is endeavoring 
to gain a place in life higher than he now occu- 
pies. 

John Ellicott is capable of using all material 
substances not from knowledge gained from 
books or experience, but from the inspiration 
given from 9, and this combination also gives 
him the power to see the rights of men from 
the standpoint of humanity and yet realize the 



SUCCESS THROUGH VIBRATION 29 

justice due to corporations. He is fitted to 
control large bodies of men, and will always be 
just in his dealings and deeply beloved by both 
his friends and subordinates. He would make 
a good judge in criminal cases and also a good 
business lawyer." 

You are as such a number as you are a name, 
but one speaks of what you have already made 
and now express, and the birth number is the 
vibration in which you are living and hoping 
to express. 

The name or consciousness is like a house 
you have bought, and the deed is registered in 
the Universe. Your life in this incarnation is 
like a house you are trying to buy, and not 
until your birth vibration is registered in your 
name is the mental part satisfied that you have 
done satisfactorily the work you came to the 
world to do. 

It is as easy to make high vibrations with a 
so-called low birth number as with a high one 
because true victories are fought out on the 
plane registering higher than the physical; 
they may be made on this plane, but as only 
motives are recognized in the plane above the 
physical, the vibration must meet the approval 
of the Higher Self before it will be registered 
in the Soul Plane which indicates the character. 



If your Birth Force is 5, you are as much 
a fire as you are an eig: our name is John 

Smith (8). Z - atom in your body, and

SUCCESS THROUGH VIBRATION 31 

Law, but the working out of the Law is left 
to your own mentality, and its success lies in 
your ability to borrow Nature's force for your 
helper. You can ride in Olympian Chariots 
which are always running, if you will go their 
way, or if you persist in going in the contrary 
direction, you can walk. 

Nature never changes her course ; man must 
adjust his life to his Mother who feeds, clothes 
and gives him air to breathe. He must give 
up the ignorance of centuries filled with in- 
gratitude, and go to her as a child goes to his 
human parent and ask to be taught. 

Always remember that NATURE IS HI- 
PERSONAL AND TO BE ONE WITH 
HER THE SELF MUST SINK INTO THE 
UNIVERSAL. 

On this plane, the I is lost in the ONE. 

The individual Jesus gave His body for the 
sons of men, but after that was done, and the 
heavier particles of his earthly body dropped 
so he could be attuned to the higher planes in 
his Father's Kingdom, he said to this Earth 
Plane, "My Holy Spirit I give unto you." He 
gave the Christ Spirit to the World. 

No doubt a body as highly spiritualized as 
was that of the Messiah when released, would 
seek the centre of the Earth — he would seek 



32 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

the centre as man does when he tries to shut 
out the world in the silence of communion with 
his own soul. This blessing as well as the 
spiritual atoms of every saint and righteous 
person leaving his body in the Earth, must 
surely bless the Earth with Christ's Holy 
Spirit. 

Number vibrations are the mental language 
of Nature; we find everything has its own vi- 
bration and expresses it in some language to 
man, only man can realize what plane the ob- 
ject is vibrating upon, — and knows that a name 
was given, no one knows how or when, only 
knows it is there and knows a horse as a horse, 
a rose as a rose, and they are just as clear to 
us as is a man or a woman. 

We take the vibration of horse and find it 
vibrates u, this shows us the character of a 
horse ; we also know his spiritual urge found in 
the vowels of the word "horse." The intention 
of the horse is to be a worthy messenger. He 
shows he is a psychic master, and yet but a 
horse. 

A lily vibrates 22, showing it is a master in 
the flower realm. Iron is a master in the 
mineral realm. We use these illustrations to 
show that it is not the number that is import- 



SUCCESS THROUGH VIBRATION 33 

ant, but it is the thing which speaks through 
number. 

Your body is made from atoms vitalized 
from the force present the day you were born. 
On that day the dominating force was present 
as the ruling power in Nature for that day. 

There is always present in every life, at all 
times, "A King on the Throne," the force of 
a certain day. As the day on which you were 
born had its own ruling force, and this was the 
power that you first breathed in, this force 
claimed you as its child and you entered the 
family of this peculiar Ruling Force, tuning 
your body to its ruling breath. 

The first sound your ears heard was the 
song of the day, made by all the things which 
were vibrating in harmony with the day. 

All material things are to be found in the 
component parts of numbers, as July i, 191 7, 
the numbers are 7, 1,^9, 7, i,^= 8; they are 
the things which were vitalized on that par- 
ticular day. 

Church vibrates 7, so this is one of the 
things vibrating in unison, although every 
church has its own vibration according to the 
mind of its congregation. 

The Ruling Force makes a combination and 
finds it reaches a certain degree of perfection, 



34 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

as a whole, and the Universal Ruler strikes 
Nature's note of the day. The digit of July i, 
1917 is 8; the note of this day is the free note 
of C. Those things whose voice do not reach 
this note are mute upon this day. Men who 
naturally vibrate lower than 8 must go into the 
upper part of their nature on this day or they 
will vibrate out of harmony with all things 
known to the mental and physical world that 
are vibrating 8. 

So a person is composed of atoms collected 
from the force that is vibrating in harmony 
with his birth digit, — the digit of month, day 
and year. We bear the same relation to num- 
bers that we do to a name. 

We must use a name upon a check or bond 
or it is not a legal document, and the name 
must be known to the world as our name. The 
name speaks for itself in the mental world. 

We are also known by our presence, — there 
is a voice of comradeship which speaks to other 
souls before the eye sees us; we say "We felt 
your presence," this is higher than mere name, 
as it exists on all the planes of body, soul, and 
spirit; both name and birth vibration speak in 
this presence. 

Again we are known by our physical fea- 



SUCCESS THROUGH VIBRATION 35 

tures, hair, eyes, complexion; this is the plane 
of our birth number. 

In working out the mathematical law of 
number vibration, you must have definite un- 
derstanding of the three planes of life and of 
all things found in Body, Soul and Spirit. 
When there is harmony, the three planes are 
always present. They manifest in the num- 
bers 1-2-3, m 8-9-1 1, or in 1 1-22-9. 

There is a lack of unity unless the 1, 2, 3 or 
its representatives are found in a name or 
birth number. 

In the body are found the constituents of 
Water, Earth, Air and Fire. This makes our 
body a planet of finer degree than the one on 
which our feet rest. While we are functioning 
on this plane, our body is of equal importance 
with our soul. When we pass on, the other 
home sphere will furnish the covering for the 
soul. Where we are to go, our future state, 
should interest us less than the progress we 
are making here in gaining materials to ex- 
press love and happiness. These can never be 
lost as they are real, and no reality can ever 
be obliterated as they belong to God's plane. 

When Soul and Spirit function in harmony 
with the body, a type of genius or inspiration 
flows into the brain, the body's finest instrtt- 



36 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

ment; it then vitalizes the senses and then 
through the hands it passes into the world of 
usefulness, into the realm of sight, into the 
plane where the 1-2-3 work presides. 

The 1-2-3 people make a mighty trinity 
among the people who do things, and feel the 
great wheels of the machinery of life go round. 

A person vibrating 1 in name or birth vibra- 
tion is a different person when with a 2 or 3 
person. He then sees through their vision and 
meets their needs, in creating for them new 
business or new trains of thought. He sees 
their views and needs and helps them work out 
their plans. 

He must be true and faithful or his word 
will be disregarded and his work vain. Every- 
body will unite in condemning a false or weak 
1 person. 

The 2 person must be alert, as his vibration 
shows he is; he should be alert to gather the 
material he loves to collect, to materialize the 
creations of the 1 ; the 3 should express the 
creation and power of the 1 and 2 and not 
speak until these two numbers are ready, 
otherwise a 3 person will chatter. 

A band vibrates 3, and is made up of various 
instruments. 3 is the Spirit Force, — the unit 
of the whole.

The high trinity of 8-9-22 or 11 stands for 
this first trinity in a stronger vibration; the 
8 is four times 2 ; the 9 is three times 3 ; the 22 
is eleven times 2; the 11 is eleven times 1. We 
know the owners of these vibrations to be 
masters. Altho we do not say so, the Law of 
Vibration calls the 8 a Mystic.

NAMES AND NUMBERS. 



DID you ever have the experience of trying 
to identify an acquaintance at a bank? 
At that time you probably realized how 
elusive seems a name. One sometimes leaves 
the window feeling a doubt as to his own iden- 
tity. 

Your name is the only mental assurance you 
have as to who you are and what you stand 
for in the community. The name stands for 
the man or woman. The whole system of 
being, called the person, is represented by the 
name. The name shows the physical man 
standing in conscious relation to other men. 

When out of Earth life the soul held its own 
conscious vibration undisturbed until it felt 
the vibration of the body and had to adjust it- 
self to new conditions. It undoubtedly knew 
before entrusting itself to the Earth's force, 
just where and when it would be born, and 
chose the day to get the dominant force de- 
sired. If we cannot believe that the everliving 
part of man knows what it wants and the ex- 

39 



4 o THE DAY OF WISDOM 

periences necessary to reach that ideal, then we 
cheapen the Real and Godgiven part of man. 
The soul knows exactly what it wants, and 
places itself in a body fashioned by parents of 
its own choosing. It is then born in the place 
it selects, at the time when the dominant force 
is active on the Earth which will bring it the 
events it needs to meet; thus placing itself in 
harmony with the force of Nature's domain. 

The dominant force of the day fills the body 
of its child with its appropriate force and at- 
tunes it to the Spirit of the Universe. This 
force is found by taking the combined digits 
of the Month, Day and Year. When added 
together these give the spirit force of the day, 
and that force is our key-note of birth, or our 
Spirit Force of Birth. We cannot change this 
force; it has gone from the individual into the 
universe. We are known to Nature by this tie 
and so long as She supplies our bodies with 
food, this tie cannot be broken. 

Nature governs everything with mathema- 
tical precision ; every event of our lives is held 
in a cycle and empties when its time expires. 
Everything in Nature can be read with mathe- 
matical precision, and our bodies belong to this 
spher,e. 

The way to stop unpleasant events is to 



NAMES AND NUMBERS 41 

stop granting time's cycle anything but good 
to fill them with. "Nature abhors a vacuum/' 
so we must find intimately our own force and 
let it teach us what life on this planet means 
for us. 

We find this clearly by complying with Na- 
ture as she shows us in our Spiritual Birthday. 

If a person ceases filling the cycles with 
unhappy events, they will grow lighter and 
brighter, but debts of Nature must always be 
paid. She always exacts "An eye for an eye 
and a tooth for a tooth." 



THE DELINEATION OF NUMBERS. 
WHY SOME ARE STRONG AND 
SOME SHOW WEAKNESS. 

4-5-6- and 7. 

THERE is a group of people lying between 
the two trinities of 1-2-3 anc * 8-9-1 1- or 
22-, but never forget that in God's sight 
there is no high and no low. 

This" group represented by the numbers 4-5- 
6-7- show out as the most independent and yet 
at the same time, as the most dependent of all 
the children of Earth. 

If the parts of the name show any of these 
numbers, you can find its weak point and after 
the growth has been made make a slight change 
in the name to show the change of vibration. 

Some people come into the world with a 
fixed kind of consciousness (which the birth 
name shows), and it will be impossible for the 
owner of such a consciousness to take a higher 
rate of vibration. We have found the person 
holding it will not live up to a higher standard 

of raised vibration. The name shows the soul 

42 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 43 

status of the individual — it will not lie. The 
intellect may become ambitious and bend every- 
thing, including the name, in an effort to ad- 
vance — but the Soul will block progress and 
the man with changed name will go back from 
a dove to a pigeon. The world will not accept 
a* false rate of consciousness. The man may 
grow into a vibration of strength by work and 
fullness of purpose. He may become a medical 
doctor and thereby add 3-1 1- to his name; a 
clerk has a right to the 22 vibration; a bank 
president vibrates 1--11; the president of any 
society opens the door to the vibration of this 
high mastership. jr /iOw-vUm^ * • 

You can find the vibration of any business 
by spelling out the word from the table found 
on page 23. 

The angels must weep over the scarred and 
seared bodies of humanity, when the cycle, 
filled often, with the mistakes of past lives, 
empties itself with the strength of the God 
power sleeping in this polluted covering of 
flesh. 

If vibrating 8—9—22 or 11-, the individual 
rises alone and mutely faces the result of his 
disgusting past and undertakes to fill a new 
cycle with actions belonging to a Higher Self. 
Men will say he is regenerated, converted, or 



44 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

use some other term to show the change in his 
character. If in his system lower numbers 
prevail such as 4-5-6-7- the Father of the Help- 
less will send some one to help him in his up- 
ward climb, some one who will hold, shelter and 
protect him. 

No person has ever anything to meet in life, 
alone, unless he has already developed the in- 
nate strength to meet it. The sheltering arms 
always protect the weak; giving rise to the 
saying which says there is a special Providence 
which protects children and imbeciles. No 
event ever presents itself in life which the indi- 
vidual has not stored up strength to meet. If 
he had it not, the event would have been post- 
poned to some time in the future, the test 
would not have been given at that time. If 
the trial is bravely met, the soul grows and goes 
on to a greater breadth of life. If when a 
test is given, it is shirked and passed on to 
another time, the soul is weakened. Con- 
sciously or unconsciously, we are being put 
through tests all the time. Life never ceases 
to be a school, from the cradle to the grave, 
and Nature's God is the school master. To 
show what grade we are in, and how to ad- 
vance in the best way, is the object for which 
this is written. Were it to tell you what to say 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 45 

and what to do and you trusted it and obeyed, 
blindly, you would be doing what the pigeon 
fancier did to change the pigeon into a dove. 
Making a faster growth perhaps, but not a 
growth of permanent value. This is the differ- 
ence between working with things, and work- 
ing from the Ego or the Self. Better to fall 
and rise again with added knowledge than to 
advance mentally and spiritually and see the 
material part of our being still sleeping be- 
cuse it does not know how to accompany its 
two companions, soul and spirit. In this case 
it would stumble, shrink and grow old, not 
because it wants to, but because it does not 
know. 

The centuries have lost the secret of Elijah 
who overcame Fire and rode in a chariot of 
that element; and of Moses, and many other 
Masters. 

It was in the second or third century after 
the greatest of all Masters had come that the 
supernormal was lost in the subnormal, and 
what to-day is called normal is really sub- 
normal. 

Supernormal qualities today are the result 
of an harmonious body — one that can give help 
to the soul — soul and body meet, and the spirit 
blends them as one and gets out the essence of 



46 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

the experience, which is stored as soul growth. 
This means that all men should have the inner 
hearing as in telepathy. They should be able 
to see the auras of people and things — their 
own soul being their only aid and teacher. 

The time is approaching when the world 
will not be satisfied with less than supernormal 
qualities. There is an elongated gamut of sight 
and hearing, and when we can function on the 
proper planes we shall be able to see and hear 
things which now seem to be marvelous, and 
the masters will again come into evidence. 

In climbing a high ladder, we mount round 
by round, taking one step at a time with care 
not to disturb the balance. 

We have the trinities of 1-2-3- an d oi 8-9- 
11- or 22. These cling together and are work- 
ing, or should work, in co-operation. These 
show out as numbers, but these numbers repre- 
sent the individuality of people; the numbers 
simply speak for them in the Universal World. 

All this speaks not through the voice of the 
writer, or of any person's brain. It is as true 
and as scientific as the musical scale, and is 
founded with the same mathematical precision 
upon the self-same law. 

The group of people represented by the 4-5- 
6-7- consciousness have always been protected 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 47 

and aided and a 4 is like a Protestant becoming 
a Catholic or a Catholic becoming a Protes- 
tant, who in his zeal to shake off what seems 
like bondage, goes to the extreme, and not be- 
ing well grounded in the deep things of life, 
he seeks aid from books and study, and seeks 
out always the best known schools and col- 
leges. He is liable to shout about his freedom 
with a loud voice, something like a child off 
for a holiday. He is generally willing to try 
anything which will bring him money; and 
when he sees his mistakes, he is liable to grow 
angry and scold. He feels his own ignorance 
and abhors it. 

A 4 will protect any one he deems worthy 
as no other will — his vowels making 9 — show- 
ing a desire in his heart for full expression of 
law. 

When his voice speaks of his true self, one 
loves a 4 and then his voice is soft and mag- 
netic. When it is voicing his mistakes, his 
voice is harsh and physical. 

4 is composed 2 times 2 which makes 4. It 
shows only the 2 plane of things gathered and 
the lack of the other planes causes the owner 
to feel a lack of balance. 

He naturally seeks an 8 or 9 vibrating per- 
son to help him in his business relations. He 



48 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

forms a valuable assistant to this less active 
but higher vibrating person or group of 8-22- 
11- or 22-9-1 1, which is a better balanced trin- 
ity than the first named. 

These high vibrating people need a 4 as much 
as a 4 needs them. 

The 4 has the push of youth throughout his 
life ; the other feels he has done with the 
active interests of the 4 person. 

The average 4 person views the world from 
a personal standpoint; he realizes the value of 
his belongings for as he is a doubled 2 his col- 
lection of things speaks to him as loved chil- 
dren ; he rejoices in not playing one instrument 
only in the orchestra of life, but as many as 
he can use with both hands and feet and the 
other parts of his body. But he likes to play 
alone, and rejoices in his knowledge. 

He talks learnedly and tells in a competent 
manner of news covering the world, but it is 
all collected from books and conversations; 
while the 8-9-1 1-22- people think things out 
for themselves and their knowledge comes from 
analysis in the silence of their own inner con- 
sciousness. 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 49 

No. 5. 

The Sage vibrates 5 and is composed prin- 
cipally of one material, having only one plane 
of mind and of collection. But as far as he 
sees, he always strikes the balance. He will 
be a great helper in the seen world, receiving 
messages from the 8-9-1 1. 

A 5 vibrating in consciousness feels strongly 
its difference to a 4. As Fire vibrates 11, and 
Air 1, while Earth vibrates 7, all odd numbers, 
Water of all the elements vibrates an even 
number 22 — we see the odd numbers belong to 
Fire, Air and Earth, while the even numbers 
belong to Water. Therefore, 2-4-6-8-22- be- 
long to Water, and 3-5-7-9- belong to Fire, 
Air and Earth. So one can readily divine the 
effect a 5 person would have upon a 4 person 
whose value pertains to the Watery Kingdom. 

5 vibrates wind, and it unpleasantly stirs the 
wares of the 4, and moves him to a restless 
activity. 

The 4 sees in the 5 person the same lack of 
balance he feels in himself, but 5 has one plane 
of both 2 and 3 which 4 has not. But as it 
lacks the quality of Unity, the 4 sees the weak- 
ness of the 5 and has little respect for 5 who 
is making every effort to balance himself upon 



SO THE DAY OF WISDOM 

the missing planes. 4 watches 5 use his mind 
to overcome matter, which 4 declares is good 
enough for him. 

5 is devoting too much of his time to study- 
ing out his life problem, to allow the 4 person 
to annoy him, paying no attention except when 
he passes him in his busy fluctuating life, mak- 
ing his frequent changes in home and environ- 
ment. 

So anxious are the 5's for a larger view and 
more knowledge, so fascinating, and with a 
Christ-Jike face that one forgives them when 
outstanding bills for necessities remain unpaid. 
They have probably used the money to make 
gifts or to entertain their friends. 

We call 5 a Sage, which means a limited 
Master. This is particularly true when a part 
of the name vibrates 5 and the birth force is 
also 5. 

They cannot be made methodical and yet 
they always touch Nature's fountain which 
bubbles over as if with new wine. 

A 5 is more friendly with a 6 vibrating per- 
son than with a 4, as 

No. 6. 

The 6 person holds a balance of 3 times 2, 
and for this reason a 6 is usually a money 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 51 

maker. We say a name beginning with the 
vowel o is a money maker, because o vibrates 
6. 

The lack of balance is found on the side of 
expression as it has but two planes and is not 
as harmonious as a number with three planes. 
The co-mingling of 2-water substance, and 3- 
fire substance, make these two planes active, 
but lacking in harmony on account of the con- 
trary elements of fire and water. So in a name 
or birth force when numbers vibrating both 
water and fire mingle, you find energy and push 
but less harmony than when the name or num- 
ber has only one ruling element. 

A 6 has the full trinity of 2 and is always 
interested in seen things, and its relation to 
the invisible world makes it prophetic. 

A 6 person cannot deal with mind upon the 
3 planes of expression, as a 6 deals with mind 
only upon 2 planes. 

A 6 person through its vowel rests in the 
heart of the n master; a bond of interest 
exists between these two classes, the 11 which 
vibrates the Jesus life, and the 6 who holds 
the balanced power of Nature's realm in his 
trinity of the 2 plane, but whose imperfect 
power of expression makes his spirit fight with 
vigor the systematic Water element. It is on 



52 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

account of this action that we find those of 6 
body or birth force mystically filled with a de- 
sire for a body fitted to live the kind of life 
Jesus lived. The cross and Gethsemane have 
little terror for them as their lives are filled 
with similar experiences. 

And yet these 6 children feel intensely in 
their bodies the rhythm of the Cosmos, so that 
they often feel as if they were being propelled 
through space, although they are often ham- 
pered by imperfect feet. When a 6 person does 
not fee] this inner harmony, he is living in 
the outer court of his being. To regain it 
quickly, walk and count while walking, 1-2-3- 
4, and make your feet keep time to the count. 
Doing this you will soon catch again the joy 
of rhythm. 

A 6 seldom has to exert himself to make 
money, as his plane of material shows him the 
way. It may come in small amounts^ but it 
will be continuous. His effort is bent prin- 
cipally upon expression. He knows what he 
wants, and cannot express his wants, feeling 
like a bird with a broken wing. Their lan- 
guage is soft and poetic, but imperfectly ex- 
pressed. They dress in soft colors of silken 
clothing or other material of fine quality, and 
would rather go without food than wear rai- 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 53 

ment of coarse quality. This is also true of 
the 7 person as they have the same balance of 
material as has the 6. 

A 6 person objects bitterly to working more 
than six hours a day. As they are swift in 
motion and work both with body and brain, 
to be obliged to plod a longer time than that, 
causes disaster to them and disturbs the har- 
mony of their households. 
1 A 6 works in the way an artist paints a 
picture, giving heed to such parts as attract 
him, and finally the whole thing will be finished 
his own rather unusual way. 

The Water element of 2 being balanced in 
the character of the 6 and 7 they put their 
most active efforts upon their deficient plane 
of expression, trying as the juggler does to 
make two balls appear as three. 

The 6 needs a 3 to assist him in his work, 
and also find a 9 a help. 

The 9 person finds companionship and help 
in the 6 and 7 people on account of their quick- 
ness in understanding material things. 

A 6 birth does well with a 9 name or con- 
sciousness, because that helps to balance the 
lack of bodily expression. 

An unshakeable devotion exists between the 
6 and the 1 1 . 



54 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

No, 7. 

The Earth seems the only real thing to the 
average man and woman to whom seen things 
are more real than the unseen, which truly are 
more real and abiding than the seen things. 

World vibrates 9 and its vowel makes 6, 
showing the world to be a Cosmic Mother. 
The World speaks for 9 and is a creation of 
free expression. 

The Earth is lower in rate as it vibrates 7, 
but it holds within its system the same Cosmic 
Motherhood. 

The World is composed of three times 3 of 
the First Trinity, and is harmonious and law- 
ful. The Earth is less competent and harmo- 
nious as it holds within its system a broken 
plane of 3 and 1. 

The World like a 9 individual feels a suprem- 
acy over one vibrating only 7, yet the 7 indi- 
vidual holds a realizing sense of things mate- 
rial, as shown by his complete plane of 2. 

7 shows a body attuned to the supernormal 
sense world, therefore it has the power of inter- 
nal sight, hearing, and what Dr. Myers terms 
"Telethusia," the knowledge of the Presence; 
but its drawback to completion is the broken 
law in the trinity of the 3's. 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 55 

A 7, like a 6, works incessantly upon this 
faulty part of his being, ever pushing his 2 
force from one plane to another in an endeavor 
to reach a harmonious inflowing and outflowing 
of what he knows to be true. This makes the 
7's careful of their language, dress and deport- 
ment, so anxious are they to fill in this in- 
herent weakness of expression. The plane of 
the 7 individual makes him creative and rest- 
less as the power of expression he is seeking 
constantly urges him on. He feels the inher- 
ent power of the whole Earth within his be- 
ing. He should be associated with a 3 or a 9 
person for he would supply the missing link; 
but it is only a very advanced 7 who will ask 
assistance of anybody. They feel their own 
inner strength and try to ignore their weak- 
ness by silence. 

Many books have been written by fs of birth 
vibration, although in name or consciousness 
they may vibrate a free number. Persons read- 
ing the books whose own vibration is less than 
7 will not be conscious of any lack, but if the 
reader is a master number, the book will leave 
an unsatisfied feeling. If the 7 author has 
employed another mind to fill in the weak 
points, the weakness may not be in evidence. 

The 7 person is a mystery to himself. As 



THE DAY OF WISDOM 

he holds the Earth within his being, he is in- 
telligent and refined but not as self-reliant in 
mind action as he feels he should be. This 
causes a longing for comradeship, but except- 
ing in rare cases this will prove unsatisfactory. 

A 7 person is composed of harmonious cos- 
mic elements as the trinity of 3 times 2 is 
present in 7. The fullness of the Earth can 
be his without very much effort, but there re- 
mains the drawback of the broken law of ex- 
pression, the lack of the Air or Fire Elements. 
There is the perfect Water element of three 
times 2, but only two times 3. 

If he is functioning on the plane of Water, 
which is 2, the Fire starts the steam force, and 
great work may be done. Or he may work 
on his broken 3 plane, which denotes action on 
the Mental Plane. Then his mind will turn to 
bringing forth from the well organized plans 
of 2, the things his soul desires. This phase 
of the 7 force is a wonderful one — clear, in- 
tellectual and logical as far as it goes. But 
the third dimension is not there. No con- 
ception of what the other two planes mean can 
be expressed, so he must have somebody to 
help him see and express what lacks on that 
missing plane. Or a 7 may try to function on 
the Spiritual and Soul plane; then the whole 



DELINEATION Ol BERS 

plan of life will be vacant and distorted, espe- 
cially on the 6 side of life. 

In 7 there is present a I, a three times 2, a 
1 times 3. This is the material of which a 
7 person is composed. They contain some of 
the four elements of Earth, Air, Fire and 
Water. Therefore in his system there is held 
latent the Law and the Prophets, with the lack 
of the balanced 3, which blocks the door-, 
for highest inspiration. 

A 7 is an Earth. It holds the elements of all 
of Nature's forces, but lacks because it is not 
big enough to express freely and be a great 
master. But it has an harmonious cosmic 
plane of 2 knowledge of wonderful power. 
The way out is to associate himself with a 3 
or a 9. In this way he may evolve into a mighty 
force called 8. 

Xo. 8. 

An 8 is eight times 1 or four times 2. When 
he is vibrating in Air (1), he touches eve 
thing in the created world and vibrates with 
all bodies and souls from 1 to 8. The num- 
ber is a reservoir from which all can take the 
vitalizing breath. Like all of Nature's for 
it is simply there. 



58 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

The Fourth Dimension is present in an 8 
system in a broken law of two planes. 

It seems evident that no one will be able to 
fully understand the Fourth Dimension as 
when the three 4's are present they make 12, 
and the spirit of this complete number is 3. 

This lack of the power of expression which 
an 8 feels, makes him particular about his lan- 
guage, his dress, and the home he occupies. He 
intuitively feels he deserves recognition by the 
World for his attainment in character. 

He takes other men's work and remodels it, 
as far as his own growth will allow. 

Christians call the Divine Principle God. 
This name vibrates 8, and is shown to be a 
Cosmic conception by the vowel, which vi- 
brates 6. 

We naturally seek an 8 when in fiancial 
trouble, much in the same way that men turn 
to God for help. If they refuse to respond, the 
forces sometimes rend and destroy them. 

Often an individual or the work of an indi- 
vidual bearing the 8 vibration when found un- 
worthy of the vibration, will disintegrate and 
go back to the formless. This is as true today 
as when the walls of Jericho fell by the force 
of the vibratory law. 

Like the figure 8 an 8 person is composed of 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 59 

four magnetic curves. As curved lines belong 
to the material plane and straight lines to spirit, 
therefore the 8 person builds a high structure 
of universal force. 

The aura of a good 8 extends twice as far 
around him as the aura of a 4. He holds 
within his system of body, soul, and spirit, 
twice the force of a 4 person. 

If the 8 is shown in the baptismal name, the 
growth was probably made centuries ago. If 
the name was acquired after birth, the har- 
monious 8 force latent, has shown out in an 
enlarged vision which will be able to see the 
Real in the sense world. 

An 8 person is like a great department 
store, containing a collection of works of art, 
instruments of music, scientific instruments, 
and fabrics of beauty and utility, with many 
people to direct the course of business. They 
express a collection, and people who want any- 
thing out of this collection, bring their less 
perfect work to have it made over into larger 
patterns of greater beauty and utility. 

Other people give the 8 expression, but not 
form. The 8 understands the physical con- 
struction of things, but the heart of other men 
must fill the forms the 8 makes. When an 8 



60 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

fails to live to his highest, he stands amid his 
great possessions, lifeless. 

No. 9. 

This number while belonging to the 8-22- 
11- group stands as distinctly different as do 
all strong characters ; he belongs to expression, 
while the 8 belongs to a collection. In other 
words, an 8 is a free expression of a collection 
to be used as he directs, while a 9 expresses 
everything. The 9 depends not upon collec- 
tions t>r material things of any kind ; he deals 
with the spirit of all things, and all kinds of 
spirits are liable to find expression through his 
human channel. 

As everything has its ruling spirit, so the 
spirit of the bubbling wine of Aces and Jacks 
find an entrance to the expressive 9. He func- 
tions with them on the lowest plane, but is 
generally able to see them in their proper place. 
He is liable to say, "Let people alone. When 
men use these spirits to reach their ideal, let 
them try them out in their fullness. When 
they have advanced far enough in conscious- 
ness, they will move to a higher ethical plane 
and then function there." But he sometimes 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 61 

lingers so long with the spirit of wine and 
cards that his own spirit seems to sleep. 

When well awake, he sees the advance from 
the physical sub-normal to the plane above 
words, where action is so harmonious that 
there is silence, as in a fast revolving wheel. 
He sees the God strength as plainly as he 
sees the negation of good. As he passes on 
from height to height, he sees little difference. 
What seems to others good or bad, is of little 
importance to a 9. 

He is a number of free expression. As 9 
contains the three planes of 3, they express 
the harmonious principle completely, and this 
makes a 9 inspirational. 

He seems able to order his wants from the 
storehouse of 8 and grasp the hand of an n 
by what we call inspiration. He draws down 
upon himself gifts. If he calls upon a 6 per- 
son he will get strong action. 

The 6 person could give harmonious physical 
things to a 9, which the 9 nature could not 
easily sense. The 9 nature is too loving and 
harmonious to question and doubt. Knowing 
he can call upon a 6 to aid him in material 
things, he simply assents. We seldom find a 9 
dealing with the highest spiritual truths. He is 
made of life's material, woven from the Trin- 



62 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

ity of 1-2-3. He deals rather with hearts and 
emotions and endeavors to bring the wishes 
and prayers of others into actual existence. 

He is often drawn into a marriage with a 4 
because the vowels of 4 gives digit of 9 and 
the 4 longs for the full expression of the 9 
nature. It is not a good combination for hap- 
piness as 4 has a broken material trinity of 2 
and is striving to fill the gap with intellect and 
force. A 6 or 7 would make a better union. 7 
has the material trinity of 2, and the 9 can sup- 
ply in. a manner the broken trinity of expres- 
sion found in 7. 

A 5 person finds a 9 satisfying for a short 
time, then they tire of each other, only to renew 
the tie and again separate. 

It must not be forgotten that the World 
loves her children who show weakness, and as 
the faults of the 9's are never hidden, the 
amount of love poured on them, without any 
seeking on their own part, makes an interest- 
ing study in this law. 

No. 10. 

With a 10 person, which is 1 in spirit, the 
character is entirely changed. 

The world condemns a weakness in a 1 per- 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 63 

son and any faltering or infidelity is regarded 
by men as an unpardonable sin. 

Straight lines belong to Spirit; curved lines 
belong to natural or magnetic forces. 

A 10 lacks one point in making the complete 
round of life. 

Pythagoras says 1 is limited and unlimited 
— it is like the Universal Spirit, free to any 
who will receive it. 

No. 22. 

A 22 person should demonstrate as a mas- 
ter of material things as they have reached 
eleven times 2 making 22. They are very much 
like the 8 people — a collection — but not merely 
of mental and physical force as an 8 is, for a 
22 has reached a spiritual material mastery. 

The 22 person holds the accumulated force 
of the 2 person, the 4 and the 8 ; he also holds 
some of the spiritual force of the 11. This 
gives him balance and expression on both the 
planes of matter and spirit; in him they meet 
to be an uplift to the race; or not reaching 
his heights, he is such as angels try to cover 
with their wings of charity, until sometime he 
awakes and finds the spirit waiting to help him 
arise. Then, so great is his innate strength 



64 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

that he can gradually become a guide to those 
weaker than himself who must have a human 
arm to lean upon. 

An 8-9-22-1 1 should never be obliged to lean 
upon any one, but should be a support to others. 
When they are not strong enough to bear 
the strain, they should go to the fountain of 
all strength for aid. 

A 22 should marry an 11, or be associated 
with an 1 1 in business. They should also have 
somewhere a 4 and a 9. 

Thus we see the 8 person formed of a col- 
lection of things ; they are free from limitation 
or restraint as their material is attuned to both 
the limited and the unlimited. But you must 
express what you want, as they lack expres- 
sion. 

The 9 person is composed of atoms totally 
unlike the 8 person. He cares very little for 
collections, "baggage" he terms them. When 
he wants anything he always finds the supply 
near at hand. 

The 22 person has two masterships sleeping 
in his system, — a mastery of mental and physi- 
cal forms and also a great psychic. Either or 
both can be aroused to action or both may 
sleep and the owner of this vibration may ap- 
pear as a monster of villainy, as he possesses 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 65 

strength for either extreme. Both 22 and 11 
have passed the initiation into the Higher 
Court where spirit and matter meet. 

The power of 22 lies in the heart of 11 as 
the vowels show, and yet a 22 is often an- 
noyed by proximity to a 1 or 1 1 person. 1 vi- 
brates Air, 1 1 Fire and 22 Water. This com- 
bination seems to start a wind of 5 which 
stirs the elements into confusion. 

22 is stronger and of more volume when it 
forms the digit of a name or birth number 
rather than when it is the separate vibration 
of a day, month or year. 

No. 11. 

We think of 1 as Air as Air vibrates 1 ; it 
finds its physical change when it reaches the 
10, and passes on to 11 which vibrates Fire. 
Both 1 and 11 are spiritual numbers as their 
perpendicular lines show. 

When the 1 becomes 11 the atoms of the 
body are spiritualized into Fire. As God 
spoke to his prophets through fire, so God 
speaks through an 11 now, as in days of old. 

When any one reaches the vibration of n 
his life should be devoted to spiritual pursuits. 
His life should be a sermon. Sometimes when 



66 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

he is functioning in the depths, he lays deep 
schemes to defraud his fellow men. Both the 
highest and the lowest are to be found in this 
concentrated vibration. 

As is plainly shown an n has passed 
through all vibrations, also marriage relations. 

The ii belongs to the world in the same 
manner as did the ancient priesthood. Every 
woman should be protected and guarded by an 
ii. Every child, of whatever nationality, is 
dear to the heart of an n through the bond 
of spirit. 

There* are so many things an n and a 22 
should do as they can sway the masses for 
good in a way no other vibration can. 

Cases of revolting crime hold the public at- 
tention strongly when the principles of the 
crime are an 11, as were Nan (11) Patterson 
(11) and Stanford (4) White (n). The 
strength of their vibration made their crimes 
more noticeable. 

An 11 regards the marriage tie broadly, as 
he does everything else in life. The marriage 
relation seldom increases the strength of an 
11 man or woman. If they throw their heart 
into it they lose in the pursuit of the things 
they have come to gain, as that would be 



DELINEATION OF NUMBERS 



67 



merely repeating what has been previously 
learned. 

Sex life and the marriage relation should 
be active from 1 to 7; diminish in 8 and 9, 
and should strengthen into guardians of the 
race in 22 and 1 1. 



BRIEFS. 

THE number i is limited until it goes into 
8 when it becomes free, and is 8 
times i. 

It finds limitation in the 4 as it has but 4 
times 1. 

The reason it becomes free in 8 is because 
it has gone out of the Earth vibration of 7 
and begun on a new gamut of sound on the 
plane above. 

9 has a perfect trinity of 3, called expres- 
sion which it has gathered from the limited 
and the unlimited. It could not have made 
this perfect development except through the 
material as a basis of its development. The 
even numbers stand as a support or body to 
the mind. 

While 9 is self-reliant and apparently inde- 
pendent of assistance, the balance is found in 
the opposing elements. 

Both 11 and 22 lack expression unless they 
co-operate with other numbers. The 2 lies 
between the 1 and the 3, so 22 composed of 

68 



BRIEFS 69 

11 times 2 lacks expression, unless with 1-9 
or 3. The same is true of 11. All the free 
numbers are weakened unless their key-note 
of action is co-operation. 

4-5-6-7 are called Limited Numbers, and 
people ask if there is any way to escape their 
limitations. There is not. It cannot be done. 

Those holding birth numbers of this kind 
have, for some unknown reason, chosen these 
imperfect numbers to work through — it may 
be to pay some debt of past lives — and they 
seem with avidity to have accepted the imper- 
fect tools supplied to them, and undertaken 
to complete their work by the help of those 
who have instruments suited to their need. 

It looks as if the 4-5-6-7 people some time 
in the past have rebelled against working 
with the 1-2-3 people and chose rather to take 
an independent path, even if they should have 
to work with inadequate machinery. They 
work with zeal, and succeed or fail, un- 
daunted, being willing to suffer if necessary 
in order to keep their independence. The uni- 
versal Mother Nature holds these people close 
to her heart and sends them helpers which 
strong numbers, often do not get. 

People holding these limited birjth vibra- 
tions, often make great progress as is shown 



70 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

by their name vibrations, and thus they are 
fulfilling the object for which they came to 
Earth and are getting experience. By living 
in the flesh we are intended to become a friend 
to every thing God has made and thus to make 
soul growth. 

As food experts recommend food grown in 
the locality round about as the most vital so 
should we find food vibrating in harmony 
with the plan of our bodies most easy to as- 
similate. As we can absorb most easily the 
kind of force we are attuned to, it seems only 
wise to 'work with Nature and save our 
strength for other pursuits. 

Nature stands ever ready to help the chil- 
dren if they will only use her language and 
work in harmonv with her. 

When certain things are not adjusted to the 
system, she sometimes speaks through pain 
and distress, and yet well we know that if we 
lived right, nothing in all the world would be 
withheld from us; it needs only adjustment. 

What seems to be the "Lost Chord," is the 
tie uniting man to nature, — until this is found, 
we stand as weaklings upon the physical plane 
of existence. 

The idea seems prevalent that to work with 
our forces is to try to master the Universe 



BRIEFS 7* 

and everything about us. To do this is much 
like a man trying to drive an automobile who 
is ignorant of the machinery governing the 
car. 

Man must first master himself, before he 
can co-operate with Nature. Nature recog- 
nizes no master but acts as the whip to 
scourge such presumption. When one has 
gained mastership over his own self, he has 
become the master of every atom of his own 
body, and of the Earth, Stars, Moons and 
Suns. These are all represented in the system 
of man. 

To find the way to such a feat the path is so 
hidden the world mourns because it today has 
few worthy disciples of any of the great 
teachers, and yet to teach this was their mes- 
sage to man. For some reason the followers 
of the Prophets took the easier meaning of 
the teachings and made temples of stone and 
brick instead of making their bodies in which 
their souls dwelt into "fit temples. ,, 

To teach a system for attaining what are 
called "Supernormal powers," one could only 
reach the few most ardent students, those with 
sufficient fidelity and perseverance to hold. 
But if the time given to research of different 
things relating to the outside world could be 



72 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

continued until each finds his own special mes- 
sage in regard to his life's work, progress 
would be made within a short time. No use 
wasting time. Do now the one thing neces- 
sary. 

To find the vibration of anything both the 
consonants and the vowels must be used. It 
is not wise to separate them. 

The vowels being spiritual can stand alone, 
the consonants being the body built around the 
spiritual structure of the vowels. 

The consonants alone tell very little unless 
one belfeves the body without the spirit has a 
truth to tell. 

So to get the key-note of anything add to- 
gether both the consonants and the vowels. 

In thinking over the imperfection often ex- 
pressed in the birth number from a lack of 
physical or spiritual balance, we know that 
the Higher Self chose your path in life when 
it could see with the all-seeing eye of Spirit 
and foresaw all the difficulties and trials you 
would have to meet in life. 

This choice of life's journey was made in 
a world where mistakes do not happen. All 
the events of your life are a part of the original 
plan. Every vibration has its strong as well 
as its weak points, and probably only by the 



BRIEFS 73 

aid of our fellow travellers can the road be 
made less difficult to travel. The way in which 
we meet and conquer our difficulties shows how 
we are advancing in our life work. 



THE SPIRITUAL BIRTHDAY 



THE question asked by every thinking 
mind is, "How can I use my force to 
the best advantage ?" 

By the power of will we project a thought 
where it takes shape as a thought form by 
drawing substance around itself. 

So the will is the Ruler of the material part 
which'makes the collection. 

It is not the province of will to put anything 
in motion — the will gathers and collects the 
materials for spirit to start the action. 

If the will is weak and faulty, the collection 
it gathers will be so small the individual 
choice of material will be limited. 

All the world is attached by spirit force to 
the First Trinity, composed of the numbers 
1-2-3. Any one without much effort can 
reach these vibrations. The 4 meets it in 2 ; 
the 5 in 2-3; the 6 in three times 2; the 7 in 
3-2-1 ; the 8 in 1 ; the 9 in 3; the 11 in 1 ; the 
22 in 2 and 11. 

Numbers in themselves are of little value 

74 



THE SPIRITUAL BIRTHDAY 75 

and are only worth considering as we realize 
their relation to the whole. 

Man as part of the universe, should be 
friendly with everything — Earth, society, 
home, mankind through the individual unit 
of vibration which we call the key-note, and 
which is really the spirit part, the only part 
which is real and abiding. 

This part tells the quality of the thing, what 
might be called the tempermental quality, and 
in a person this is shown by the name he is 
using. 

Our comprehension of things depends upon 
the action of spirit force upon the vibration of 
our bodies, and the spirit force of our bodies 
depends upon the attachment which Nature 
made the day we were born. 

Our soul consciousness, shown by our name, 
tells us just how much we can comprehend. 

The vibrations 1-2-3-4-5-6-7 see with a more 
limited vision than 1-8-9-22-11. The first set 
of vibrations see more minutely and can de- 
scribe more in detail, but they are not liable 
to see the thing in its relation to the universal. 

The high vibrations see farther upon more 
extended planes, but are apt to overlook details 
unless their attention is called to them. 

1 vibrates with all numbers; when with 



76 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

limited numbers it vibrates with them; when 
with unlimited ones, it revels in its freedom. 

Music is the voice of the universal force, 
and as man touches this force by the digits 
found in his name and birth force, it is by this 
means that connection with the universal is 
maintained. 

We are attached to plants by the universal 
thread of the i and its expression of sound in 
2 and 3. If a world should get out of harmony 
with the universe, both the world and the uni- 
verse would suffer. Thus it is with man ; if he 
is not in harmony with the world, he suffers, 
and he being the higher he suffers more 
keenly. Man must stand to the universe as 
the Maker of the Universe stands to man. 

The higher anything vibrates, the more 
power of both suffering and enjoyment is 
found in its system. Upon man's ideal of his 
Maker, is founded his life in the Universe. 

All things hold in their system an inherent 
desire to climb to greater heights, — to ad- 
vance. This is a Law of Nature, and exper- 
ience is sought in varied channels to make the 
advance possible. 

We judge people according to our ideals, 
often forgetting the quality of the plane they 
are functioning upon. 



THE SPIRITUAL BIRTHDAY 77 

As all things work with matchless precision, 
so our Earth vibrates as a unit to 7. 

The wonderful story of truths unknown at 
present will some day be revealed when man 
better understands Nature, through Nature's 
God. Now man and Nature speak to each 
other as though the seas divided them, and 
their voices are lost in the distance. 

Our music has a gamut of seven notes, a-b- 
c-d-e-f-g. One of these notes dominates and 
rules each day, on account of the motion of 
the Earth and its position in regard to the 
Sun. The day's note is struck in the silent 
place where the symbolism of force found in 
Universal Mind proclaims the note of the day. 
This note awakens everything which can find 
harmony with it through the key-note. As 
sound is connected with a certain color, so 
naturally the note collects atoms vibrating to 
its own tone and color. 

A child born on any day hears as its first 
sound, the note of the day, and brings with it 
its own color. This color or these colors fol- 
low the person all through life. Although at 
times they may vibrate on a low plane, they 
can never be lost. If the person leads a per- 
verted life, the colors darken and repel ma- 
terial things, which clear colors attract. The 



78 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

force present at the time of your birth is the 
strongest and best earthly friend any one can 
have. The digit of your birth force shows the 
quality of the thread which attaches you to 
the Universal Life. It is the key to the collec- 
tion of Will which opens your doors. It is the 
Master of the Storehouse ; it is the force which 
can control the thoughts which so often beset 
us to annoy and trouble us. When their cycle 
is touched, we seem unable to control some 
thoughts. They repeat themselves so often 
we sometimes fear to drive them away, as 
they seem stronger than ourselves. But this 
is the force to use to clear our atmosphere. 

At a new birth the soul decides to enter the 
activities of a new life, which may be a Para- 
dise in comparison with the one he last lived, 
in order to gain the knowledge his system de- 
mands in order to become a balanced being on 
all planes. He takes up the atoms which will 
make him a body suited for the work in his 
coming life. Some time in his journey he will 
reach a stage in evolution when he will be 
capable of making a body he can take up or 
cast off at will. When this can be done his 
life journeys through the world are fast com- 
ing to a close. He will then understand the 
power of the Spirit, and the last enemy, Death, 



THE SPIRITUAL BIRTHDAY 79 

will have been overcome. Such souls climb 
the ladder until they reach the state where vi- 
brations cease to control them and they can 
thereafter control their own lives, often com- 
ing back voluntarily to help other souls climb 
to where they have reached. 

When a soul decides upon rebirth it sees 
with the eye of spirit and knows what path 
it will have to travel through the world to 
meet the events it needs for development. 
These events are controlled by the power of 
the will, which vibrates 2, and makes manifest 
the events you have earned in your past and 
put into your cycle perhaps ages ago. When 
the Clock of Life strikes it presents some ac- 
tion of the past, it may be a joy, or it may be 
something which you refused to meet, so it 
comes again and again until you meet it 
squarely and extract the lesson it has for you. 
When this is done we clear our colors ; we are 
freed; and what the Eastern Teachers call 
Karma is wiped out. 

When the master knows the Oneness of all 
things, and finds the Christ Spirit in every- 
thing, the new Karma he makes is quickly met, 
sometimes between the rising and the setting 
of the Sun. The cleaner the past, the more 
quickly the Law of Adjustment works. 



80 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

The surest way to advance would seem to be 
to find out of what our collections of past 
events consist, which are already stored in our 
system; then to find use for the good and to 
clear out the worthless, j Some of our tenden- 
cies are inherited, some of our thoughts which 
have caused bad habits, may have been col- 
lected from other minds which we have care- 
lessly absorbed. 

The Spirit Force of one's birth is Nature's 
force and is a natural element, but it will re- 
main dormant unless the centre of the body at- 
tracts it by an illuminating radiance. 

It cannot gleam and glow when the body is 
filled with sorrow, anger, remorse or worry 
for they are not natural forces. 

The natural boy or girl drop tears over a 
broken toy, but when the condition is found to 
be inevitable, smiles quickly replace the tears, 
and this is perfectly natural. 

All the world loves a lover, and Nature pro- 
tects and guards the bodies of youth until 
false ideas have replaced love with fear. 

The night before your own day, drop all 
your worries and open your heart to every 
joy the world holds — they are all hidden in 
your own natural force and long to come to 
you bringing both love and material treasure 



THE SPIRITUAL BIRTHDAY 81 

upon which you can build both soul and spirit 
structures. Only a natural hearted body can 
bring your own force from hiding. You will 
know when it becomes active, for you will 
want to whistle, sing or laugh at what before 
perhaps seemed to be worries. 

Remember the force must be wooed and 
brought into action by the open expression of 
your heart. 

Then we ride in Olympian chariots. When 
we deny this force we are obliged to walk, see- 
ing the chariots go by in an opposite direction, 
and have sickness, poverty and unhappiness for 
our comrades. This is because we have not 
really entered the Golden Stream of Nature, 
but have only known about it mentally. 

God acts upon the physical plane through the 
motive power of those who are obedient to His 
will and they must be hands and feet for the 
ever living God. We often say he employs 
very indifferent messengers, and this appears 
to be true ; but within the system of everything 
there is a point of the Real which attaches it. 
Around the Real clusters the Unreal, which is 
not the true self but borrows its strength from 
the Real. As the untrue part belongs to the 
untrue of trie world, so the true spark belongs 
to the Divine. The untrue attracts the untrue 



g 2 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

— the true attracts the true. Sometimes a 
message is intended to go to one who vibrates 
very little reality and one of these people of 
lower vibration may be able to do what another 
of higher vibration could not do. God uses 
all kinds of messengers to do his service. 

When opium was admitted to China it 
opened the ports to those who carried the mes- 
sage of the Messiah. All kinds of messengers 
are used to carry the true message, but every 
messenger, no matter how he appears has his 
place in the great Cosmic Choir of Brother- 
hood. " His voice may not be heard, but as long 
as he has a body, soul and spirit and rings 
true, he is assisting in the adjustment of the 
Cosmic Law. 

When a life seems ,so burdened with cares 
and worries that a laugh seems impossible, note 
carefully the feelings which appear on the birth 
force day. If there is an indication of a laugh 
or the slightest lifting of the burden, search for 
the Real Thing your burden holds ; pick it out ; 
every day brush some of the Earth dust from 
it and after holding firmly to the centre reality 
it contains, look out through the maze of wor- 
riments composed of ignorance and mistakes, 
sometimes of other minds and wills, all col- 
lected around yourself, and realize the yoke 



THE SPIRITUAL BIRTHDAY 83 

these have laid upon you. When you thor- 
oughly realize this, slowly unwind the tangled 
threads, and laugh, sing and rejoice. When 
you see it going where it belongs, take the 
points of good from every trouble and burden 
with you and seek a higher plane than this 
wearisome mass can reach. When you find it 
has not strength to follow where you are, leave 
it in the hands of its own force. You may 
have been carrying the burden for years, and 
when you found you could not cure it and it 
got no lighter with age, why weaken yourself 
with the constant struggle? Search for the 
good points and take them with you, leaving 
the rest on their own plane. Then let your 
own force teach you and keep an open mind for 
every hint of changed condition. 

The business man should watch his sales on 
his Spiritual Birthday and notice if they point 
to a change of stock — notice the quality of his 
customers — the kind of goods wanted — and put 
forward goods of his own vibration, making 
a specialty of his own color on that day unless 
it too strongly conflicts with the Cosmic color 
of the day. As everything becomes more bril- 
liant when the color of the day meets its own 
color, it will make his goods look more har- 
monious. 



84 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

Yoyr own color will help you to grow, if 
you will use it. 

An up-to-date store should keep one person 
to dress the windows daily and put forward 
goods vibrating the colors of the day, found 
by getting the digit of the day, month and year. 

Colors are vitalized which vibrate with the 
day. For other details note Balliett's Nature's 
Symphony. 



HOW TO FIND THE SPIRITUAL 
BIRTHDAY, OR THE DAY OF WISDOM 



FIRST find your own birth force by adding 
together the day, month and year of 
your birth. Then take the digit of the 
whole which is your Spirit Force, and binds 
you to Nature, telling you how you are related 
to the Cosmos. 

Whenever your own force found as above 
by adding the day, month and year together 
and taking the digit as it appears in the calen- 
dar of the current year, then look ahead about 
nine days and you will probably find another 
day giving the same digit. 

They occur about three times in each month 
and with a little study you will easily discern 
them. The days and months will differ bring- 
ing you different events. 

Whenever your own Spirit Force arrives, 
watch it closely to see what message it brings 
you. It may be hidden by not self. Not your 
force, but if you watch it carefully you will 

85 



86 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

discover its true message, and it will show you 
it is ready to help you in every way. 

When either the month or day is n, do not 
add that, but find the digit of what remains out- 
side the ii. It is the same when a 22 appears, 
depriving the person of the force which should 
properly be his own. If the 11 or 22 belongs 
in your name, it may represent your higher self 
arising to give assistance to you. 

Let us take for example a person born March 
1, 1883. 

March vibrates 3 
The day is 1 

Year digit is 2 



15, digit of 6. 

This person's force is 6. 
In the year 191 7 you will find the Spiritual 
Birthdays for March thus : — 
March 3, 1917, 

March vibrates 3 

The day vibrates 3 
Year, 191 7, vibrates 9 

15, digit 6. 



THE DAY OF WISDOM 87 

Nine days later, March 12, gives the same 
digit of 6. So does March 21, and March 30. 

In April, the 2 and 20 give the 6 digit. 
In May there will be four; the i, 10, 19 and 
28. 

In June, the 9, 18 and 27 are the days. 

In July, we find 8, 17, 26, the numbers. 

In August, the 7, 16 and 25 have the 6 digit. 

In September, the days with a digit of 6 are 
the 6, 15 and 24. 

In October, the 5, 14 and 23 with the year 
digit of 9 gives a digit of 6. 

In November, the desired days are the 6, 15 
and 24. 

In December there are four days with a 
digit of 6 by adding month, day and year. 

They are the 3, 12, 21 and 30. 

In the first month of 191 7, January has three 
days with a 6 digit — 4, 13, 31. 

February has three, the 3, 12 and 21. 

It will probably take at least three months 
for an earnest student to read and understand 
his own Book of Life. All other aims should 
be put aside until this is understood and the be- 
hest, "Man, know thyself," is obeyed. 

Find your birth force, then see which days in 
the coming month will have the same digit as 
your own special force. About three usually 



88 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

come in each month. As the combination form- 
ing the spirit digit will differ with the various 
days, months and years, so different events will 
come on different days, but the Spirit Unit is 
guardian of them all. 

Whenever your- own digit appears as a day's 
digit you will have to hold firmly to your 
centre, for it will make you so active as to dis- 
turb your balance unless you do so hold. 

Before you begin your study look into things 
and find in them through their digit the con- 
tact with their spirit, for if everything is not 
bound by the one universal cord of spirit, then 
the Oneness of the whole is a delusion. There 
must be the One in Many to hold together a 
universe of worlds. Every action, small or 
great, should be done according to our Law of 
Life, which must be in accord with Universal 
Law. 

To give an illustration of what is meant and 
to show how Nature conspires to help those 
who understand her laws and are willing to 
assist in the upbuilding of the whole, I record 
an event which taught a woman one of her les- 
sons on her spiritual birthday. 

She was in a store making her way to the 
R. R. Station to meet the only day train to her 
home, a long distance away. Just as she 



THE DlAY OF WISDOM 89 

reached the door she saw a crowd of people 
gathered, blocking her way. Instantly she felt 
her body fill with vital energy. She was moved 
as though by a strong hand through the crowd 
to where a doctor stood beside an apparently 
dying woman. Without protest from any one, 
she took the ice cold hands of the woman into 
her own and allowed Nature's force to flow 
through her into the almost lifeless woman. 
The Doctor shook his head, but she stood on 
unmoved. After a few minutes warmth and 
life returned to the woman, and she said, "I'm 
better." 

. The woman we are studying, then hurriedly 
made her way to the R. R. Station and as she 
entered the baggage room to have her trunk 
checked, she saw by the clock that she had only 
three minutes to spare. As she took her eyes 
from the clock, a woman in the front of the 
waiting line beckoned to her and said, "Take 
my place." She accepted and at the close of 
the three minutes, boarded the train, with 
check and ticket in hand. Afterwards in think- 
ing over the incident she realized that she had 
touched her harmonious chord and all Nature 
responded to the call. 

At another time, a different set of happen- 
ings taught this woman another lesson upon 



go THE DAY OF WISDOM 

her spiritual birthday, showing her another 
view point of her Law of Life. 

For several years she had been annoyed by 
the erratic actions of a relative by law. She 
decided the woman should not have power to 
annoy her in the future. 

On the morning of her Spiritual Birthday 
she said to herself on rising, "I have determined 
not to be annoyed by the actions of my relative. 
I will be kind to her, but it must be at a dis- 
tance. She shall not come near me." The 
declaration was so earnestly made that it left 
hec silent and passed at once into the Univer- 
sal. She knew this had happened as no further 
thought of the matter troubled her. 

Having made Law a study, the cycle of 
events often revolved swiftly for her. On 
this special morning, immediately after break- 
fast, she went into a pavilion on the Boardwalk 
in Atlantic City, to wait for the opening of the 
Boardwalk Church, as she had often done be- 
fore. 

On that morning she found a most un- 
friendly spirit prevailing among the crowd of 
pleasure seekers. She spoke to several and 
they answered her usually acceptible sociability, 
with arrogance. In the Church although seats 
were lacking, one on each side of her was left 



THE DAY OF WISDOM 91 

vacant, people passing them by and seeking 
places elsewhere. Even the clergyman turned 
away from her. 

After the service she went back to the pavil- 
ion, not yet understanding what was happen- 
ing to her. She spoke to several persons, trying 
her best to find some point of contact, but all 
her efforts were vain. She finally asked the 
Father to show her what was the matter. In- 
stantly the form of her relative came before 
her. Then she at once knew she had been pay- 
ing the penalty for the law she had broken. 
The Intelligent Universe was thus teaching her 
child. Nature would not tolerate the laying 
of a false law upon another, and the one who 
tried to do so must suffer for her violation. 
She now plainly saw she had used her will vi- 
bration of 2 instead of trusting the 1. 

What she should have done was to take her 
grievance to God and there leave it, knowing 
that the Spirit which moved matter into a 
world would move events in such a manner that 
her grievance would have been arranged in a 
way acceptable to both parties. 

It was her duty to do the thing which pre- 
sented itself, even the meeting with her rela- 
tive, in the very highest way she knew and 



■ 



92 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

trust to the Highest for harmonious adjust- 
ment. 

As soon as she realized the mistake she had 
made, this woman tried hard to overcome the 
broken law she herself had set in motion, but 
it required both effort and prayer to make the 
adjustment, for the Universe, which in the 
plane on which she had been functioning, 
knows nothing about motives, but recognizes 
only action, was using against her the law of 
Repulsion, which she herself had set in motion. 

The Spiritual Birthday, which holds one's 
very -own force in its unit teaches you more 
quickly than other days do, which have some 
special lesson for other people who vibrate in 
accord with them. 

At the close of the cycle of 365 days, comes 
the recognized birthday when friends give pres- 
ents and compliments to the one whose yearly 
anniversary has again arrived. 

The Spiritual Birthday, which occurs about 
every ten days should be the happiest of days 
filled with joy and peace. Your desire should 
be to find out exactly what your force holds 
for you, and how you are to take events from 
your own storehouse, possibly placed there in 
former centuries. Until we have tried this 
plan, we do not know what they hold ; it may be 



THE DAY OF WISDOM 93 

fame, wealth, or the result of good done when 
you were filled with zeal in working for the 
Master. From many lives, there must be stored 
in the soul's collection of victories and mem- 
ories of times when you were the person of ed- 
ucation, wealth, love, you now often long to be. 

As only a comparative few of the Western 
World can remember their past incarnations, 
we have no way of bringing back the knowl- 
edge of what we have been doing since the 
dawn of creation when all souls left the cre- 
ative hand of God. As the Bible tells us, at 
that time creation ceased, and we have cer- 
tainly been journeying somewhere — upon some 
plane of existence — ever since that time. 
Sometimes, memories like vague dreams pass 
through our minds, bringing a longing for a 
repetition of past triumphs. 

Nature never wastes her treasures and they 
cannot be called from the past, but by the use 
of our own force upon the Spiritual Birthday 
we can enter the storehouse of the same force 
that brought the things we wish to have again. 
These probably cannot be returned, but the 
same force will be present holding, perhaps, 
greater blessings for the future, according to 
how we have used our past blessings and are 
fitted to use more in our present work. 



94 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

On your special day notice every glimpse of 
the unusual that presents itself. This may 
not appear until after perhaps months of 
watching, as we are so constantly beset with 
unimportant details. But continue to regard 
the day as your friend and teacher. Erase all 
evil thoughts of events which occur upon that 
day, and search for the good in what appears 
evil. Watch the people you meet and the 
thoughts they bring you, and you will find in 
them sometimes the benefit you are seeking. 
Only by watching the straws, can we be sure 
of tjie way the wind is blowing. 

Remember, whatever you put into the cycle 
is liable to return on succeeding birthdays; 
they appear like messengers, going we know 
not where, often returning to us with a mes- 
sage we cannot understand without undivided 
and concentrated attention. 

We understand that each individual contains 
within himself a universe of worlds, and each 
world is in vital relationship to the vital force 
or keynote of the whole. If one world is out 
of harmony with the general scheme, both' the 
world and the universe will suffer. So when 
a human being is out of harmony with his 
brother men, all creation suffers, but the in- 
dividual himself, is the greatest sufferer. 



THE DiAY OF WISDOM 95 

Every one can at any time show his good will 
by a thought embodying an action and in this 
way put himself in harmony with Universal 
Law. An act like this will enter the Unseen 
and the return current is likely to bring you 
some blessing the Law holds in store for you. 
But the good action must be entirely free from 
selfishness or self-seeking. Simply a kind act 
will often bring you a blessing in its return, but 
if it is done with a thought of the return, the 
good will avoid you. 

Say the word, Opulence— let it sink down 
all through your body ; then hold still and push 
it out through every pore ; knowing that every 
body atom holds all the constituents of a world, 
pass the vibration of opulence through every 
atom of your body, out, out, you know not 
where, t nor must you care. The Universe 
deceives it and sends it where it wants to 
go. You are an instrument the Universe is 
using, just as an electrical instrument gives 
light to the world. After you have pushed 
the thought out of your body, let it go until 
the force becomes so fine and still you feel 
the return current enter your body. Do not 
name anybody or ^think especially of your- 
self. Remember you are one world in a Uni- 



96 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

verse of Worlds, united by the unity of 
spirit to all other souls. 

The Universal Spirit guards and protects 
the Law of Unity, so when you do this kind- 
ness to all created things is it reasonable to 
think that a good instrument like yourself 
will be allowed to want? 

Then take another word, — Regeneration. 
It vibrates 5, which is the vibration of the 
Christ, — the vibration of that spirit left in the 
world when the Christ had ascended, so it 
holds a mystical meaning. 

Use this word as you did the word Opulence. 
One deals with the highest plane, the other with 
both mind and spirit. It will change condi- 
tions in the world. Do it without thought of 
self, letting God take care of you through the 
Universal Law. 

It is foolish to use your will on men and phy- 
sical conditions. Use your will to make your- 
self do these two exercises two or three times 
a day. Do them while engaged in other work ; 
they will make life different for you. But do 
not use the two words together, as they func- 
tion upon different planes. Take care not to 
miss any part of your body, in the outgoing 
and incoming current. When done for about 
a minute, the Universe will take care of your 



THE DiAY OF WISDOM 97 

effort and create harmonious conditions for all 
mankind through the Earth currents. 

Now can you see the wisdom of giving to 
the Universe your aid in this strong human 
action on all the days which holds for others 
the especial Spirit Force which you are using? 

On your Birth Force Days and on other days 
you send out Opulence and Regeneration. Is 
it reasonable to think that the Force present 
in your own path of life will pass you by, un- 
heeded and not help you to lead a life suited 
to your own generous spirit? Do not doubt 
the working out of your plan, even though it 
may take months or years to adjust all the 
broken laws of previous lives as well as of this 
one. 

Your Spiritual Birthday should be a happy 
day, filled with gifts, pleasures and happy 
events. This will come when the law of your 
life is read through the teachings of these days 
governed by your special force. 

You are a member of a large household gov- 
erned by the same spirit force, which controls 
the material things surrounding you. Do not 
forget that if God governs all the great things, 
He also governs every act of your life ; the peo- 
ple you meet; the places you see. The people 
you meet could not come near you unless the 



9 8 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

law governing their lives and yours coincided. 

Everything in both your life and mine is 
governed with mathematical precision and jus- 
tice. When anything which appears like evil 
touches you, don't try to avoid it, but realize 
that it could not be there unless it held an 
element of good in its system, for only the posi- 
tive element can move when the spirit acts — so 
hunt for this point of contact and know that 
this is your message. Take with you to a 
higher plane the good which is in the thing, and 
if its body will not go along, then leave that 
for the Universe to control. 

There is another point of contact for man- 
kind in the vibratory system found in the con- 
sciousness as expressed in the name. On days 
vibrating the same spirit force as our name, 
we will find the vital dominant force of the day 
to be especially in accord with us. 

Some natures are less flexible than others 
and show fewer open doors, they having con- 
centrated upon one path, as their name shows. 

Others with the versatile minds have eagerly 
desired to meet every event in life, in order to 
learn. They desire to know. These people 
make many vibrations to carry to other planes. 

Different worlds have their own key-note. 
Some are limited while others strike free notes. 



THE DAY OF WISDOM 99 

The vowels show the quality of the inhabitants. 
World vibrates 9, which shows it to be a law 
of expression. 

Earth vibrates 7 and its vow T els equal 6, 
which shows it is attached to the Universe 
upon only two planes. It does not reach the 
highest, nor can it until the inhabitants have 
greatly raised their vibrations. The point of 
present interest is how to find our balance with 
the Earth as we must do in order to vibrate 
harmoniously with it. Our body is a physical 
expression, and the force abounding in the 
Earth belongs to us as truly as our bodies do. 
When we comingle with this force, we see the 
result in added vitality and power. 



LIVING IN MATTER INSTEAD OF 
SPIRIT. 



NATURE'S force of 7 is present in each 
month of the year because the word 
month vibrates 7. 

If you were born in the month of January, 
which vibrates 1, your tie to Nature is the 1 
of the Earth force of 7. Your body regards 
the Earth as a unit, as one and not many. 

If the day vibrates 3 and holds the First 
Trinity in its system, the force by which all 
things were created is a more active force 
than the month force of 7. 

If you were born on the 4th day of any 
month, and you are using the physical and the 
mental force of the First Trinity in your body 
plane, look to the digit of your birth force. 

Year vibrates 22 and is a hidden master of 
a year's experience. 

If your year digit is 3, your Teacher is one 
of the First Trinity. 

Your month being 1, your day 4, and year 3, 

by adding these numbers you find their spirit 

100 



LIVING IN MATTER INSTEAD OF SPIRIT 101 

quality reaches a digit of 8. This 8 is what 
you are, and on the silent side of life, its vibra- 
tion speaks to all men and they know spirit 
has proclaimed you a child of 8 vibration. 

Your body is formed of the atoms found in 
the 8 highway of life. Nature accepts you as 
a child of 8 character — you are attached to the 
Earth through Earth currents of the quality of 
your month; your activities are denoted by 
the quality of your day ; your Teacher is of the 
kind which your year proclaims. The Spirit 
which abides with you and shows what you 
can reach, is the digit of the whole. 

Now if for any reason the person who has a 
I month, 4 day, and 3 year making a birth 
force of 8, which is a free number and by 
which he is known to men, if he should fail 
to live in his high place, he will go into the 
material 4 of his day vibration and use its 
force instead of his true spirit force of 8. 

When people meet him, they instinctively 
recognize him for an 8 person and expect him 
to show out 8 qualities of Altruism. When he 
appears to be a 4, they consider him untrue and 
unreliable ; so they either let him alone or give 
him hard labor of the 4 vibration. 

Or take a case where the digit of month, 
day and year equal 4 and the day vibrates 8, 



102 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

as a 2 month, 8 day, and 3 year giving a digit 
of 4. If this person tries to leave his birth- 
path of 4, which he chose for his path to work 
in all through life, and should try to function 
in the path of his 8 day, the world which recog- 
nizes him for a 4 will say he is not nearly as 
great a person as he thinks he is, and will turn 
from him to seek a 4 who is functioning in his 
own proper number. 

If a man is functioning in a 4 day and the 
digit of day, month and year also make 4, peo- 
ple will always find him loveable and true ; his 
day protects him. Or if an 11 birth force has 
a 6 day he also will be greatly loved, as 6 is 
expressed in the vowels of 11, and this is 
equally true of the other numbers when a per- 
son is living his true life. 

To find exactly where you are living, watch 
your Spiritual Birth Force Day. If you find it 
an empty day, then consider the force govern- 
ing the day of the month in which you were 
born, and find out if you have gone outside of 
your spiritual force into a material day. 

If so, close the door of your day, and move 
the contents which you consider valuable to 
your spirit force, which is the digit of your 
birth. 

If you leave your spirit force and go into the 



LIVING IN MATTER INSTEAD OF SPIRIT 103 

Earth currents of the materials which form 
your physical being, you will lead a dreary, 
unblest kind of existence. 



THE WILL. 

TWO occupies the middle place in the first 
trinity, between i and 3, It represents 
will, which vibrates 2. 

If number vibration speaks for truth only 
in a limited way, it is worthless. To be of real 
value it must express the truth of the whole. 

This system recognizes a different action of 
the will to that generally considered by the 
worldly leaders and teachers. These giants 
of will go through varied experiences, living 
sometimes on the mountain tops and again in 
the valleys, trusting always in their own ef- 
fort which they consider a spark of Divine 
Mind and man's highest ruler. 

According to number vibration they are 
working on a proposition which has no outlet 
and no expression. 

Spirit vibrates 1 — mind 22, 1 creates and 3 

expresses. Spirit's expression is through man's 

physical body, a thing he cannot yet control. 

When he succeeds in doing this, which is his 

true desire, Nature will recognize his master- 

104 



THE WILL 105 

ship and open her doors to him. Now his will 
is faulty as it vibrates in the first trinity — a 
trinity which is dependent upon the 1 and 3 
for harmonious action. 

The key-note of will is 2. Its vowel vi- 
brates 9, showing its desire is for law and full 
expression, which is yet unborn, and will be 
eventually gained by a reliance upon the higher 
1, which stands for spirit and is the creator 
of the heaven and the earth. 

Will shows a broken trinity of the divine as 
it vibrates two planes of 1. So it is not a 
master — it is the custodian of its master, God's 
collection of his creation and can only yield 
its wares to those who apply to the door the 
key of 1. Those who enter in any other way, 
must pay back some time, in some way, for 
what they have pilfered from Nature's store. 

We can see around us many examples of 
people who have made mistakes in the use of 
their will. It is true, to assure success, the 
will must be active, but to assure an abiding 
success, it must take its proper place. This 
last kind of success will act in what the world 
calls a charmed life, which shows in both 
large and small events, that all Nature con- 
spires to help the individual for the good of 
the whole. 



106 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

When the individual will rules, it acts like 
an insurgent taking what it wants, without 
heeding where the thing comes from or who 
else may have a claim upon it. These people 
say the Universe is intelligent and must adjust 
its own difficulties. The adjustment is usually 
made through courts of law, through floods, 
fires and wars. Through these and other heart- 
breaks, Nature will avenge any wrongs in- 
flicted upon her. 

Will is not mind as mind vibrates 22 and 
will only be one-eleventh of that force. Mind 
is master of will yet mind is not the highest; 
it is one of the Masters of that Maker whose 
name is not known in any language. 

Milton gives a comprehensive picture of the 
1-2-3 trinity in his Paradise Lost. He shows 
that when the Living (1) God (8) -9, which 
is law upon the 1-2-3 plane of action, decided 
to create this world, the three planes must act 
in unison in the material. Some of the inhab- 
itants of Heaven said, "One, only one; not 
three." Hence there was a war in Heaven as 
they did not recognize the three manifesta- 
tion as the one. 

The Divine Thought went forth and moved 
the material substance to start a world into 
action ; the 2 gathered together what had been 



THE WILL 107 

thus started and this condition represented the 
Divine Impression. 

The 1 represented Creation, the action of 
Spirit in substance, the 2 gathered it together, 
the 3 working with the 1 and 2 brought forth 
a world, each doing its part and yet working 
as 1. Had the 2 principle been unmindful of 
the work of the 1, the collection would have 
been faulty and the 3 could not have brought 
forth a world according to the laws of Nature. 

So a man governed by will as his highest 
weapon of use is relying upon a force that 
lacks active incentive until moved by the action 
of the spirit 1 upon it. 

For instance, suppose you have no piano and 
greatly want one. You have been told to vis- 
ualize it and it will come to you. So you do 
visualize it until you can see the grain of the 
wood of which it is made. If you continue 
to do this long enough, it may come to you, but 
it will be likely to bring with it many circum- 
stances of inharmony, and it will be likely to 
continually pass out of your possession. In 
all probability you have brought to yourself 
an instrument to which you are not attuned — 
you do not know it, nor does it know you. In 
time it may reach its true owner. 

In accordance with law the desire for a piano 



108 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

may come to you in a way you cannot well 
shake off. The secret of success lies in find- 
ing the i. You have found the 2 and 3 in the 
vision. Go quietly and persistently into the 
inner recesses of your system, seeking the One 
and not the Many — holding the thought and 
vision of the piano until the silence of the Uni- 
verse is reached, and the thought of the instru- 
ment is lost in the greater world where you are 
functioning and you care no more for the piano 
nor anything else connected with your wish. 
Not until that point is reached has the piano 
entered the workroom of the spirit world, 
where the one intended for you is made. You 
will forget your wish, but the piano will come, 
perhaps in an unexpected way, and this one 
will not leave you, for it belongs to you. Alert 
vibrates 2 the same as will. Be alert that the 
law can show you where is held your wish. 

If the desire is weak, the vision will be 
weak, and a weak expression will follow. Tt 
collects and guards its possessions, to obey 
is the duty of the 2 which represents will to 
spirit 1, and to give the expressive 3 the 
full vision of what it contains. 

The same law acts in business relations as 
in subjective work. A firm or family should 
have a trinity of 1-2-3 or 1-8-9 or 1 1-22-9. 



THE WILL 109 

When these numbers are found in the name, 
the judgment of such people will be good; if 
these numbers are found in the birth vibration, 
such people will work well but the judgment, 
is liable to be faulty. The last named people 
have come to learn through action. 

People whose birth vibrations show the four 
elements of Air, Fire, Earth and Water have 
more enthusiasm than those who have made 
these numbers and show them in their names. 
Those who bear the same spirit force in both 
birth and name, show they have come to repeat 
their experiences — we do not know, it may be 
an encore upon some plane — they give more 
force and virility to the character. 

If a person shows these combinations in 
name, he has a more balanced will than one 
whose numbers predominate in the numbers of 
expression — 3 and 9 — or who has an excess of 
the even numbers 2-4-8 22. 



MASTERS. 

THE world at this stage of race develop- 
ment associates the word "masters" with 
one who stands with a rod of authority, 
coercing all who are of his following to listen 
to his doctrinal teaching. But this represents 
the worldly master, the one who governs 
things according to known laws — such laws as 
can be'put into words — not realizing that any- 
thing which can be comprehensively told is of 
limited quality and goes only a limited part 
of the way. It may do good work, but the 
higher, the greater, cannot be told in words, 
although words show where the door is to be 
found which leads to the silent way. From 
the silence we can sometimes hear the words 
and realize the truth the words are support- 
ing. 

The masters are those who have overcome 
self, who have so attuned body, soul, and spirit 
to harmony that the planes mingle as one. 

The strength of the spirit governs the soul 
and body and the man feels the actual pres- 

IIO 



MASTERS in 

ence of God moving and speaking within him, 
but not as a guide from outside, which would 
be obsession. 

The natural plane of 3 advances to the full 
harmony of its own plane. The 4 soul opens 
its transom to the 1 spirit and the great spir- 
itual impulse flows through, not periodically, 
but constantly. 

The master is one who at all times governs 
the atoms in his own body. When this is done, 
he is master of all the elements — he can take 
on a body and lay it down at will — become vis- 
ible or invisible as he needs in order to do his 
work. 

We have among us those who are masters of 
certain sciences such as electricity and steam; 
but those who make harmonious instruments 
and tap Nature's forces are not masters in the 
truest sense. They are not masters of their 
own temple where the master dwells. 

The true master speaks the word and Nature 
obeys his will. 

Each of us should train his own body to 
mastership as the Messiah tried to teach his 
apostles to do; and they, misunderstanding 
him, built temples of wood and stone. There- 
fore we their descendants suffer as weaklings 
seeking ever the lost link between Nature and 



ii2 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

Man. Only in finding this sixth sense can our 
race do what Moses and the Prophets did. 

We believe the victories a person gains in 
any life are stored in his soul and the result- 
ing experience is likely to show out later as 
Charity. 

We do not believe the souls of Moses and the 
Prophets and all the martyrs and saints of the 
ages have lost their interest in the life of the 
world they helped to develop. 

Many of the Great Souls on Earth today are 
probably these same people in the flesh once 
more to secure further victories in their ad- 
vance towards Divinity. 

These men and women we are considering 
must have possessed the one quality without 
which no master was ever crowned as such, 
and that virtue was and is Fidelity. An un- 
wavering turning of the mind toward God, and 
a desire to help their fellow men. 

If this were properly realized by the many 
who today possess master vibrations as shown 
by their names, they would turn like a mighty 
avalanche to the Living God. Their turning 
would serve to teach the race the trend of 
God's will. 

We are told we have functioning on this 
Earth plane Great Masters whom the world 



MASTERS 113 

never sees. From them the great ones take 
their orders and teachings and they in turn 
pass them on to those below. 

Sages, Seers and Adepts, each has its own 
particular work in the world of created things. 
There are those who go down into hades to 
try to help suffering souls win through more 
quickly. 

The Psychic (11), who is one of the highest 
messengers, goes there. If you are of this vi- 
bration and are sufficiently true and faithful 
for God to trust you to do His work, He may 
send you there. If you do not go consciously, 
you may do so in your sleep, and try to release 
souls who have sunk into helplessness and need 
a strong soul to help them. 

If you are true and worthy, you will feel no 
depletion either mentally or physically. If a 
silence envelops you and you have a tremen- 
dous sensation of awe, then thank God. 

If you feel a pulling or pressure upon your 
head, know that some outside force is trying 
to use your power. Go at once into your high- 
est system and there ask the Father to remove 
the force which it not His from your body and 
environment, and hold still until it goes, know- 
ing it cannot return. 

No one should take from you nor should you 



ii4 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

take from any one anything but what the 
Father allows. 

Never go to a master for help. Go to God 
and He will send you the master suited to your 
needs. 

The only arm to lean upon either in the seen 
or unseen side of life, is the arm of the Divine 
Trinity, the Maker of Heaven and Earth. 

The adept vibrates in heaven which is i ; 
also in hell which vibrates i. The difference 
is shown in the vowels or heart of the plane. 
The vowels of heaven make 1 1 ; the vowels of 
hell vibrate 5. The heart of heaven is a mes- 
senger — the centre of the other place is the 
sage of life. 

Jesus (11) went to both places. 

There are those in the world today so shut 
in by their dense material bodies that they 
cannot tolerate the name of God. Yet the 
point of contact can be found in the soul of 
some true person. They may yield to the 
Brotherhood of Man when they cannot yet 
reach the Fatherhood of God. 

The n's and all the other masters find their 
work with these people both in this world and 
on more remote planes. 

The masters are also deeply interested in all 
religious denominations, and often function 



MASTERS 115 

among the people in unseen bodies, sending out 
waves of spiritual strength. 

People who are in harmony with this phase 
of the world's work find satisfaction in build- 
ing churches, where in the stillness can some- 
times be felt the loving care and faithful love 
of those who have guarded them through the 
ages. 

The religions of the world have many mas- 
ters. The mystics who vibrate 8 are con- 
nected with building the temples, and in hav- 
ing scholarly sermons preached in them. They 
like to have the altar filled with symbols to 
constantly remind the worshippers of all the 
ideals they represent. 

The 9 masters are those concerned with law. 
They are always present at national confer- 
ences and urge legislators to make humane 
laws to govern labor and penal institutions. 
They dwell in Houses of Parliament and in 
Senate Chambers. They encourage free dis- 
cussion and are clearly related to the Laws of 
Nature, holding the balance of the Sun and 
World. They are intended to dominate in 
things pertaining to law and expression, but 
for a 9 to assist Nature to hold her balance 
he needs a 6 person to assist him. 

6 is balanced on the physical plane, being 



n6 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

three times 2. 9 is balanced on the plane of 
expression, being three times 3. 

When Nature is threatened by a convulsion 
or disaster of any kind, the Spirit of the Uni- 
verse speaks. The masters would not be mas- 
ters if they did not understand Nature's voice 
as well as they do the human voice. They con- 
gregate at the scene of disaster and the Nature 
forces act through them as man stands in the 
same relation to Nature as God does to man. 

6 is a cosmic mother and holds the balanced 
power of material substance. 6 is not bal- 
anced upon the mind side, as it has not a per- 
fect trinity of 3. The 9 supplies this need and 
the 6 makes the 9 a perfect balance of mate- 
rial and mind force. 

Sometimes the combination of 6 in birth 
and 9 in name, makes a valuable cosmic 
helper. The 6 contributes towards the bal- 
ance of the matrial substance found in the 
cosmic world. 

An adept vibrates 1. This 1 mind of which 
the Adept is made shows he is composed of 
a creation of law with a heart or urge deal- 
ing with the cosmos. He assists all the other 
masters. 

A seer is a 2 with a desire for the creative 
power of 1. 



MASTERS 117 

We see the seer is a collection of adepts 
and must have law 9 to get harmonious action 
with the higher masters. 

A sage vibrates 5 and is a master of limited 
quality as 5 has but the one plane of mind 
and one material. But he strikes a balance 
as far as he sees with his limited nature. He 
will be a helper in the seen world as are the 
adept and seer who receive messages from 
the 8, 9 and 1 1 . 

22 is a master on the plane on which it is 
working. For instance if a person is 22 in 
name consciousness and a 5 in birth vibra- 
tion, he is striving to be a sage master. If 9 
in name and 22 in birth number, he is striving 
to make himself a master of law and expres- 
sion. If a person is 5-22, in name he is a 
sage master. This sage will be active in all 
philosophical research and will be of valuable 
assistance to the masters who take from the 
silence what the sage carries to those who 
need their instruction. 

We find also that the adept who vibrates 
1 may assist the dead in their efforts to climb 
to a new centre of consciousness. 

The question will be asked, "Are all the 
people who vibrate 1-2-5 adepts, seers and 
sages or limited masters; and are all those 



n8 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

who vibrate 8-9-22-1 1 masters of unlimited 
power ?" 

We fully believe they have within their 
system exactly what their soul, represented 
by their name, declares they have. 

But we realize, as you do, that the most 
pitiable cases of weakness are often found 
manifesting these mastership numbers. The 
cause is to be found in wrong ideals, com- 
mercialism selfishly followed, and desire for 
power. These have so dwarfed and cramped 
the bodies of these people that they have de- 
serted -their high vibration and are living out- 
side of their own heritage. 

Both adept 1 and seer 2 are contained in 
3, so a 9 person contains in his system both 
adeptship and seership as he has a balanced 
plane of three times 3. The 9 person knows 
intuitively what a 3 person learns through 
action. 

By false, hard and perverted lives many of 
the great Soul Lights are today masquerad- 
ing on the earth as black motes. They have 
shut out and shut in the only light which 
could make their lives a success. In weakness 
they face their fellow men and serve those 
they know have less inherent power than 
themselves. 



MASTERS 119 

They are great golden chalices filled with 
power, sealed and fastened in a fleshy cover- 
ing vitiated by infidelity and false action; but 
although the strength is dammed up, it is al- 
ways ready to come forth through the door of 
which Nature guards the key. As every sin 
committed against her must be met according 
to the Old Testament law of "An eye for an 
eye and a tooth for a tooth," you will be 
obliged to pay your debts. 

The God of the Universe will employ only 
messengers who are pledged to truth and fi- 
delity and only the guardian of these qualities 
can open your door of flesh. 

When you are ready and show by action that 
you will pay, in Nature's own way for your 
past mistakes, then all Nature will conspire to 
help you. 

Many of the masters whom we see about 
us in our daily walks, probably feel that to 
pay ofY their debts and to stand free and un- 
tramelled, would require centuries of time. 
To make haste, we shall have to seek another 
plane — the soul plane — where motive is the 
law. So the masters about us must move their 
plane of action to this plane and take with 
them all the true and good which they love. 



120 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

Everything not suitable to take there, must be 
left behind. Simply "go on." 

As the master is seeking to make a rebirth 
of his own Christ life, he must trust as his 
guide only the Great Ones who have conquered 
their own bodies and have proven the power 
of the Spirit over the flesh, remembering if 
he is too sorely tempted God will send him a 
visible master who will appear in human form 
to help him over the danger point, until he is 
strong enough to follow the guidance of the 
invisible Spirit. 

The glorious masters of God sometimes ap- 
pear in humble places and those who are in 
darkness cannot see their light until their own 
light comes forth, when they as a master are 
able to recognize a master. 

Until our own light does shine forth we 
search and grope for the great and true. 

Our blind eyes will not be fully opened until 
we are able to ascend from the moral plane to 
the spiritual. On this highest plane, the closed 
door to the master's real self is opened. He 
sees there the source of the turmoil and weak- 
ness of his own nature and how to correct it 
by the use of Heaven and Earth power. On 
this plane the dense body of past mistakes is 



MASTERS 121 

baptized in living fire and he finds a radium 
glow of the union of Spirit ever lingering. 

When his lesson is learned, a psychic master 
leads him back to the moral plane and with en- 
hanced light he enters the physical plane, a 
stronger man with new points of contact on 
the old embarassing things of the past, as he 
now functions normally upon the plane of the 
Trinity of body, soul and spirit. He is now 
no longer deluged by falsehood and dishonesty ; 
he has left the plane where others use these 
methods, so he no longer feels their power for 
any length of time. 

He now goes back into the plane of his 
mastership and there finds in the voiceless 
silence of the spiritual plane new life and new 
strength. Soon after this, revelations in re- 
gard to physical things will come, disentang- 
ling life's snares. 

In meditation "the many" pass before him, 
but the silent voice of the "One in Many" is 
the one to seek. 

We understand everything comprehended by 
the brain through the spirit force present on 
our day of birth, its keynote is the keynote 
of our physical life. 

We can use music to make a passage way 



122 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

to all our success in the physical world, sim- 
ply by finding our own note. 

The music of heaven is unheard by our 
physical ear, and so it is with all sounds not 
on the physical plane. 

No one should ever trust a voice which 
declares itself to be a master. The master's 
name is a soundless one and no voice of the 
intellect can spell or name a great master. 

The masters who are teachers often live 
among us, but always humble and relying 
only upon the Everliving God. 

Always go direct to God, then trust the 
master He sends to help you and never after- 
wards accept one unless he appears in some 
way to assure you positively that he comes 
from the Father. 

When looking for light do not close yourself 
against any means, as the message may be 
given by some one passing on the street; it 
may be found in a book or come during sleep. 
It matters not how it comes, if it is a truth. 
If a question accompanies it, you have not got 
all the truth. Wait for the illuminated mes- 
sage. 

In regaining a lost mastership, place com- 
plete reliance in the One who gave you the 
master's power. Realize that He will put you 



MASTERS 123 

in exactly the right place; probably the path 
on which you first gained it, will be the road 
on which you will again find it. If it was 
gained in the busy, noisy places of the world, 
no doubt in such a place you will find it again. 
If gained in the overcoming of vice and deceit, 
no doubt these same conditions will again come 
to you. If you succeed in getting through 
stainless, the physical plane will soon recognize 
the presence of a master instead of a weak 
being buffeted by Nature's storms and ad- 
versities. Before you can recognize a master 
you must be one. 



WRITERS. 

MANY people today are writing stories, 
plays and scenarios which would seem 
worthy of publication but which are 
returned by the magazines with the comment, 
"Not adapted to our need." Sometimes a less 
interesting story than a rejected one is ac- 
cepted, but that one truthfully portrays life. 

Many people are writing stories of things 
outsiSe their own experience, and they never 
touch the keynote of Truth, even when the 
story is clothed in good language. 

To do good work one should keep to his 
own vibration, especially as found in the key- 
note of birth, and if necessary by this being 
a lower vibration than the name, the subject 
should raise the birth vibration to the rate of 
consciousness as shown by the name. Keep 
to this vibration, zealously. 

Use the force of your Spiritual Birthday as 
your teacher. Before your "Day of all Days" 
arrives, prepare your mind for its coming. 
Think of it the last thing before falling asleep 
the night before, remembering always that all 

true force is governed by God.

Nature's true channel. Until we are masters 
we must work through our Father in Heaven. 
When we have done our utmost He will call 
upon one of the Hierarchies of Nature's twelve 
divisions and they, through their masters, will 
bring you your desire in some way which will 
be in harmony with your own path in life. It 
may not be the way you had thought of, but 
it will be the best way, as with patience, work 
and trust no one can fail. When we do our 
best, all the powers of the Universe conspire 
to help us. 

But let no man feel crushed by one failure ; 
if he does Nature is liable to let the rung of the 
ladder on which he is standing when he gives 
up crumble, and he will have to begin his up- 
ward climb all over until he learns to build 
with the Universe and not on his own founda- 
tion. When he at last succeeds, he will know 
what it really means to live. 

Persons whose birth digits are any part of 
the 1-2-3 principle, should write stories of real 
life with plenty of action in them, of the swing 
of life's pendulum through all lives from 1 
to 10. 

The 2 gathers and collects and joys in his 
collections. His possessions are as dear to him 



WRITERS 127 

as children — dear because they were created 
by spirit and he possesses them. 

The 3 person expresses what the 1 has 
created and the 2 gathered — whether happi- 
ness or gloom, it efficiently expresses them. 

The 4 person sees the world with power and 
independence and tries to portray its joy in 
freedom. He describes war, and lands gained 
by conquest. His loves are always personal, 
"My wife/' "my husband," "my home," and he 
will defend all these with his life. He cannot 
realize that all these things he calls "my," be- 
long to the Universe, and must in time go back 
to the Universe. 

The 5 will write about mystical beings made 
human, as in Folk Lore and Fairy Stories, and 
Ghosts. This is because the 2 and 3 compos- 
ing 5 works upon created things, as does the 
4. If the 4 depends upon the 1 present four 
times in his vibration for the moving of his 
collected store, he makes beautiful, strong, 
forceful stories. 

If the 5 depends upon his 2 and 3 planes, 
he will seek the beautiful things of creation 
and see them as a spirit and matter, not 
separated but existing together in a most 
fascinating whole and they are liable to carry 
bits of old philosophy to prove their verity. 



128 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

The production will be fantastic but beautiful 
because they almost might be true. As every- 
thing contains within its form a foundation 
of truth, or it could not exist, so a 5 person 
hunts for his substance and brings it forth 
always elusive and bright. When descending 
to Black Magic it is the same, only on a lower 
plane. 

A 6 person should write of things pertain- 
ing more to the material world than the 5 as 
they hold a balanced plane of material things 
and a broken plane of mind. 

A broken plane jockies and juggles with 
the plane it does not possess. The 6, like all 
other broken planes will make guesses about 
the effect of things on the missing plane, as 
will the 4 and 7, with a constant desire to try 
to function on it, for there lies their weak- 
ness, and the perfect material plane of 2 
found in 6 and 7 makes that plane less inter- 
esting to them. 

Both the 6 and 7 should associate them- 
selves with a person vibrating 3 and the 3 
person as well as the 6 and 7 will mutually 
benefit by the association. 

The 6 person will write stories of Nature's 
children ; of the Undines, living in the water ; 
the Sylphs of the air; the Salamanders in 



WRITERS 129 

fire, and of Fairy Stories, always touching 
the balanced earth plane. 

The 7 person should write stories much 
like those of the 5, but of a more intellectual 
cast. 

The 4 being a broken plane of 2 are the 
world's greatest students seeking ever the 
knowledge they know others possess. 

The 6 and 7 are most active upon the mind 
plane of expression, seeing ever their missing 
link. They both write stories in which can 
always be found a question mark on the side 
of mind, and a solid basis upon the material 
side; but they go out into the unknown realm 
of mind in the endeavor to get knowledge, 
and they go so far in that they often make 
prophesies in regard to the future which 
really come to pass. 

The 4/s and the 6's work their minds hard 
in the endeavor to find their missing note. 
Therefore the stories of 4, 6 and 7 are the most 
interesting to their readers, but they are not 
as restful as those of 1-2-3-5. 

The 7 person can finish somebody else's 
story as if it were his own. 

The 1 person delights in starting something 
and leaving it for somebody else to finish. 

An 8 person starts things in a large way 



130 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

and weaves stories about what he has seen, 
never about what he has imagined. 

The 9 person writes of hearts and emotions, 
—of life as he knows it, from the dregs of hu- 
manity up to the highest. Their sins only 
make people more interesting to a 9, who sees 
the lowest in the highest. 

The 22 person writes like the 1-2-3 people, 
but in a larger way. They are fitted to write 
masterly articles on most subjects. 

As the vibrations advance there is felt to be 
less effort, less friction, more poise and native 
strength. 

The 11 writer, like the 22 speaks as one 
with authority, as one who has gone deeply 
into the lives and thoughts of the living and 
of the so-called dead. 

The magazine vibrating in the trinity of 
name or birth is the best one to select to which 
to offer your writing. Also consider the name 
of the editor or business manager and select an 
appropriate name for your production. 

Make your characters act according to their 
name vibration. An 11 should be a spiritual 
master; a 22 a master of anything, good or 
bad but always a strong character; a 9 is al- 
ways full of expression; an 8 should be a 



WRITERS 131 

mystic; a 5 a sage; a 1 an adept; a 2 a seer, 
while a 3 is both of these. 

Make your characters act in accord with 
their names and they will be real creations. 



THE HEALER "1 

THE question confronting the healer is how- 
to do in the quickest way the things his 
patients desire. They all desire 
strength to live and act out their highest ideals 
here on the physical plane. 

Then the question at once arises, "Is it right 
to commercialize the healing power ?" The an- 
swer is, "It cannot be either bought or sold, 
any more than a lasting, visible road can be 
built across the sea. The healing power is a 
gift of God." 

Anyone who can make an instrument in ac- 
cord with Nature's laws, can attract the force 
to which his instrument is attuned, according 
to the character and quality of the instrument. 

The Healer must make his body a fit instru- 
ment for Nature's law to work through. His 
body must be trained and his soul uplifted for 
until those two meet spirit, the instrument will 
not be acceptable. 

Some people are naturally harmonious and 
meet Nature's requirements within a short 
time, but they must train in concentration or 

132 



THE HEALER 133 

their instrument will be fitful and unreliable. 
The Healer spends months and years in making 
himself a fit instrument for use. Nature has 
no favorites. All must conform to law. 

If you train your body to heal by mental vi- 
brations, you use words of denial and affirma- 
tion and the patient is keyed to that plane. If 
you work on the soul plane, the Divine Mind 
denies there is spirit or life in matter. The 
"collection" is obiliterated by the vision of 
its universality and the patient rises out of 
the body plane and functions in spirit as a soul 
which is freed from the body. 

The other class of healers declare the body 
is of equal importance in this life to the other 
two parts of soul and spirit. 

To develop the Christ Spirit until it perme- 
ates every atom of the body with spirit force, 
is the only way to make a normal being of 
body, soul and spirit. To make the body obedi- 
ent to the soul as the soul is to the spirit, is the 
work of this last class of Healers. Each kind 
cure by his own methods, as any one can de- 
velop healing power who fervently believes in 
the Oneness of all things in Nature and Spirit. 

Healers of the first trinity, 1-2-3, ^ no ^ action 
most satisfactory to their active creative spirit. 
They are strong vibratory forces. The 4*s use 



134 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

strong affirmations and make many cures in 
their own way by denying and affirming. 

6 and 7 having the three planes of body ma- 
terial, build and build into the Christ body, 
which overcomes matter. The 3 and 9 obliter- 
ate matter and see only mind in spirit. 

As 6 and 7 have an imperfect mind trinity, 
they more easily reach success through devel- 
oping the Christ body than in curing by oblit- 
erating the body plane. 

9 has a strong human plane of mind in spirit 
and will find the spirit force without strenuous 
effort. 

The great healers of all vibrations reach a 
place where words and thoughts are lost in the 
Great Silence, where the body takes in the uni 
versal needs of all nations and those associated 
with the Healer receive the baptism of the 
Spirit. 

It is easier for an 8-9-22-1 1 to function in 
this way than for those of more limited vibra- 
tions. 

The name vibration shows the development 
and gives its strength to the birth force. 

In the Silence the body can reach the heighth 
of the soul's devepolment, but a person with a 
7 name and 5 birth, can reach best the full 
earth current and cure through its vibrations. 



THE HEALER 135 

An 1 1 name and 5 birth will cure not only by 
the earth plane currents, but will also be able 
to reach the Silence and will be careless of 
method. Simply to reach the highest he under- 
stands, is his aim. 

Now we come back to the question, "Shall 
I the healing power be paid for?" 

No one can buy this power — the healing 
power is as free as all the rest of Nature's 
gifts. 

But the man who made a medicine case for a 
doctor is paid according to the amount of work 
he puts upon it. 

No one can pay for God's gift to men. But 
man must pay for what he receives upon the 
physical plane where all is judged according 
to action. When he goes beyond his body into 
the higher plane of spirit he goes into the Uni- 
versal Domain where money and pay are lost 
sight of in the one whole of Universal Love. 

The Healer spends years in making his body 
a fit case to hold the medicine of the nations, as 
without that preparation he could not meet 
Nature's demand for a suitable instrument. 
'^Vith constant and persistent effort he has 
made the trinity of body, soul, and spirit. 

The law of the physical plane is "An eye for 
an eye and a tooth for a tooth." If we ignore 



136 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

that plane and do not eat, we lose our instru- 
ment, made for service. This condition should 
be met as the law of that plane demands, and 
it knows nothing except the coin which bears 
the government imprint. 

When any one engages a Healer to do for 
him what he some day hopes to do for himself, 
he should pay the Healer according to the time 
he has spent in getting his patient's body so the 
spirit force can flow through. 

To give a gift instead of payment, makes it 
not a gift, nor does it subscribe to Nature's law 
of payment. 

All healers have many patients among those 
who need them but will not ask; or of other 
Healers who are suffering from broken physi- 
cal laws and need another Healer to turn 
through them the gift of God's force, until 
their body can once more use its own force, this 
is one way in which a Healer pays his own debt 
to Nature. 

Those Masters who vibrate either in or out 
of the body when healing, belong to the Uni- 
verse and rise to the place where neither money 
nor food is needed. They can continue their 
journey unhampered. Healers of lower grade 
are trying to overcome the weaknesses of the 
flesh and thus overtake them. 



THE HEALER 137 

There are many Healers who are trying to 
heal while they are doing other labor to support 
themselves and their families, and this puts 
upon them a double burden. This should not 
be allowed to happen, as they should be fully 
recompensed for every adjustment they have 
made to Nature's law. 

But money should never be taken until the 
cure has been actually made. Otherwise the 
law of the physical plane will again be violated. 

Nobody can possibly receive something for 
nothing. 

Nature's law of compensation acting through 
the Law of Love makes every soul liable for 
the debts he has made upon any plane. In this 
life, or in some other, we must pay. 

Deeds, whether good or evil, will continue 
to confront us as the cycles empty until they 
are met and paid in full. This is the law of 
Physical Plane. 



REINCARNATION 



THINKING people desire to believe in the 
continuity of life, and with the eye of 
hope look out for it among the current 
thought of the day. 

That a soul comes back to earth over and 
over, that it repeats its work over and over 
with no definite idea of ending — this to many 
tired Tbodies and brains seems undesirable. 
They long for the pearly gates they were told 
about in childhood and the golden streets, for- 
getting that if at their present stage of devel- 
opment they should be transported to such a 
place, they would at once want to own both 
gates and streets, not for community use, as 
they have not yet reached that point of altru- 
ism, but as their very own. 

Some kind of body must evidently be used 
in Heaven, — a body suited to that plane. 

The body we are using today is probably a 

little more spiritualized than the ones we have 

previously used; this life may be a Paradise 

compared to other lives we have gone through ; 

138 



REINCARNATION 139 

and the higher the vibration we make in this 
present life, the higher the place and form we 
shall take in the next life. If it should vibrate 
too high for this earth it would go to a place 
fitted to its needs. 

The thought of a soul at a new birth, taking 
a new body and then adjusting his spiritual self 
to it, is not a pleasant one. By a little think- 
ing, we see that natural law explains the prob- 
lem. The physical atoms are collected through 
the parents and when it comes to birth Nature 
unites it with the Universe by breathing into its 
body the force filled with the note of the birth- 
day together with its color. It is then a child 
of earth born of spirit. Its life plan has been 
laid out as a Moon is fitted to its orbit. 

So the new body is born to live just so many 
years, as the archetype tells. A man may de- 
stroy his body before his time expires, but 
Nature will not destroy a man before his time 
cycle ends. 

The man is kept alive by the combined force 
of body, soul and spirit. When the body fails, 
we call it death; when the soul's light is dim- 
med by the density of the flesh, we call it sin 
or degeneracy, and the spirit cannot fully act 
upon man without points of union between soul 
and body. 



i 4 o THE DAY OF WISDOM 

The Bible says at the end of six days, crea- 
tion ceased. If so, then at that time all souls 
had come out from God. 

We believe that while we were entirely ig- 
norant of material things a guardian angel 
stayed near every soul born in the flesh, and so 
continued until the soul was capable of choice. 
The life of a babe is a fit example of our early 
condition. 

One thing certain is that no one with Divine 
Faith developed will ever, in the ages to come, 
go contrary to his own divine desire where it 
calls him, he will go and live his life. 

The higher your ideals are today, the higher 
and finer will be your future body in order to 
actualize those ideals, until we get beyond de- 
sire, and know we are the pearly gates and 
streets of gold. 

The answer to the riddle of the Universe 
is Growth. The story of mankind is neither a 
tragedy nor a comedy. There is never a cli- 
max. The drama goes on forever. 

In the physical expression of nations, we see 
it as war ; as wedlock and divorce. Humanity 
is not the result of accident. It is a plan of 
God. With all its waverings, it generally ad- 
vances constantly a little higher. It seldom 
goes back much, for the same reason a chicken 



REINCARNATION 141 

could not go back into the shell — it has become 
too big. 

So we will soon be too big for wars, although 
the journey of the nations has always been 
along that path, and we have still some dis- 
tance to go before equity is reached. 

One should not say, "All is well, ,, in defiance 
of truth and reason, but rather say and think, 
"Everything is growing better, and I am here 
to help it grow better. A part of life's burden 
rests on my shoulders and I will bear my 
share/' 

This is intelligent faith, without which man 
cannot advance, but with it he can control every 
event in his life 



HORSE RACING 



THE vibration of the day as well as of the 
driver is to be regarded in selecting a 
winning horse, together with the horse's 
name. 

It would be an indication of success of the 
name of the horse, the vibration of the day and 
the driver's name should form a trinity. 

Suppose, for instance, the horse is named 
Alice (3) ; let the day be a 1 or an 11; and 
the driver a 2 or 22. 

If the horse is named a master number give 
him a master driver, and select a day for run- 
ning which will complete the trinity of man 
and horse. 

Do not guide a master horse too closely. 

The name should have been given at birth 
or have been borne at least a year. 

These rules are not given by one versed in 
horse racing, but the Principle of Numbers is 
worthless if it cannot contact every business 
and speculation. 



142 



STOCKS 

THE same principle which applies to horse 
racing also applies to all transactions in 
stocks. 
Those who manipulate them successfully will 
tap the source of the nation's wealth. 

As everything in the Sun World is governed 
with mathematical precision, so do the rise and 
fall of stocks find their motive power in the 
mathematical government of the Universe. 



143 



MONEY 

MONEY vibrates 9 and holds within its 
heart the great spiritual message of 
the 11. 

The law of abundance shows out in the leaves 
of a tree, but the source is not in the leaves but 
in the root, which goes deeply into the earth 
and there gathers to itself the four elements of 
Air, Fire, Earth and Water. The leaves ex- 
press 'the work of the root. 

Thus it is with money. To get it we must go 
deeply into Nature's domain and see what 
elements are found in money, and follow this 
thought up to the Nation's recognition of the 
value of a coin. 

Money appears to be a great law of the 
Spiritual Master and to claim it for the self 
alone, is to break the law. 

When you have thought out this process and 
realize it clearly, then go to the Father of 
Nations and think about the many needs wait- 
ing to be supplied and know that your body can 
help equalize the vibrations necessary to have 
it go where the Father wills. Think not of 

144 



MONEY 145 

yourself as separate, but as a part of the whole, 
and day and night send out this thought from 
the solar plexus centre. Say this in words, "We 
want to be one of the Nation's sources of 
money/' and let the thought pour out through 
every atom of your body. Let it cross the seas 
or tarry in your home country, just as your 
Father wills — you are no more than a har- 
monious law for it to use. 

In a short time you will feel a return current 
come into your body. When it fully comes to 
rest, go quickly and begin something you desire 
to do, or simply give thanks. 

The first thought may not fully exhaust it- 
self for three or six months. You will know 
when it is exhausted and will also know what 
further thought to hold. Do not go into the 
personal or it may take you a long time to get 
back into the right path. It is only the Imper- 
sonal which cures or gives gifts by Nature. 

When your body has really become one of 
the Nation's sources for money to flow 
through, you will receive other and higher 
training. But to win out, do not let the per- 
sonal enter. 

Help God to fill all deserving ones from this 
same source, and you will thereby help to bless 
the world as God has blessed you. 



THINGS THAT SEEM LOST 



WHEN anything you have wished for 
comes to you either by purchase or 
gift, believe it comes from the Father, 
and give thanks. If it is a thing you do not 
want, it has come from your own false desires, 
or from the power of other minds. Shatter it 
with -the thought that it is not your own, does 
not belong to you, and would make you seem 
false to yourself upon the physical plane, as the 
thing can recognize only what it sees, and does 
not deal with causes. 

Good things which are lasting and real come 
from the Father who created you and to whom 
you are attached by an invisible force which is 
your individual messenger. 

When anything is received which you like, 
hold it in your hand until your own force en- 
ters it and speaks to it. Let it feel you will 
protect and love it as it loves and serves you. 

If in any way you are separated from it, re- 
call it in this way. You have lost it upon the 

physical plane, upon that plane it must be 

146 



THINGS THAT SEEM LOST 147 

sought, and yet to work only upon that plane 
is not a logical method unless you are a Master 
and can prove it by controlling your own body, 
in which case there will be no need of using 
any method as all Nature gladly obeys the 
voice of the Master. The winds, the waves, 
the fire, all turn at his command. If you can- 
not do this, as did the Great Master, who said, 
"Greater works shall ye do," know you have 
not yet attained. 

Let us say you have lost a bag, one you 
cherish, and have searched diligently for it and 
thus have fulfilled the Law of the Physical 
Plane, which knows only action, not forgetting 
to hold the picture of the bag in your mind's 
eye all the time, as that helps to recall it. After 
you have done all you can, and failed, then go 
to the Father, who knows all things, and ask 
him to have your beloved bag returned. 

Remember that the Personal can always go 
to the Father, but the Impersonal belongs on 
the Nature Plane. 

After you have petitioned Our Father, then 
go to the moral or soul plane and ask to have 
the bag returned, if it truly belongs to you, as 
you think it does; if it does not to let it go to 
the person to whom it really does belong and 
for whom it was made, as you want only what 



148 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

is your own. And you know neither man nor 
nature can keep you from recovering what is 
your own. 

Now visualize the bag as you go into the 
Silence of the Higher Self which reaches into 
the Eternities, and all through Nature's realm 
which holds the lost bag. Hold this vision until 
it loses itself in the Spirit of the Universe 
which will move the elements of the physical 
plane until the bag is returned. Keep your 
eyes and ears open for its return, or until an- 
other still better suited to your needs comes 
to take its place. 

While you are waiting, do not talk about it, 
for words put it on the mental plane and the 
mental forces often retard the higher action. 

The mental giving up of the bag creates a 
link between man and the occult forces, as the 
Higher Self of man works with the occult laws 
for the impersonal rather than for the per- 
sonal. 

Use this same method when love seems to 
have flown, after you have tried to recall it 
upon the plane of sight, and failed. Go to the 
Father, who knows every need of the soul. 
There hold the loved image. No need of words 
— He knows. 

Then rise to the soul plane which stands as 



THINGS THAT SEEM LOST 149 

an intermediate between spirit and body — go 
to this Higher Self with your love and wishes. 
But you must completely trust this ever loving 
self, and be able to say you want only what is 
yours and not anothers. 

If this being for whom you are longing is 
only an illusion, then you ask for a lasting love, 
one made for you. 

Hold in your imagination the image of the 
one you seem to love until it dissolves and only 
spirit as a white mist remains in the place it 
occupied. Until this occurs, you have not com- 
pletely fulfilled the Law. When it has been 
fulfilled, you will feel satisfied and your heart- 
ache and longing will be lost in something bet- 
ter than you had hoped for. You must trust 
the All Wise, who can move Nature and give 
you your heart's desire. 

It is not wise try to draw any one to you by 
the power of your own will, as it is likely to 
tangle them in forces they will want to escape 
from as one tries to flee from a hypnotist. 

Never talk about what you are doing, nor 
what you have done, unless to some one who 
needs your help. 



THE EARTH 



AS we have seen the lack of the power of 
expression in the 7 person so we know 
that our World called Earth, feels the 
same lack. 

The highest atom the Earth can claim vi- 
brates 7, and it can only furnish material to its 
children for building their bodies with atoms 
which vibrate between 1 and 7. Those ex- 
ceptional souls who refuse to be satisfied with 
onlv the material the Earth can offer, must 
call atoms from higher vibrating spheres. This 
is the case with people who have birth forces of 
8-9-22-1 1 and this may be one of the causes 
why these people are not at present demon- 
strating their mastership upon this planet. 

When the time comes that they realize their 
divine strength a mighty cry will go upward 
for an unlimited world such as Jupiter which 
vibrates 9 and calls people by its vowels which 
give a digit of 8. 

It is the duty of awakened souls to so ether- 

ialize and refine the Earth that other notes will 

150 



THE EARTH 151 

be added to its gamut of sounds, and bodies 
take on new strength and power of expression, 
so that the Law of Love will have freer ex- 
pression. 



MAGNETIC OR ELECTRIC? 



MAGNETISM vibrates 1 1 — its vowels are 
6, and this means it is a Christ mes- 
senger of the Cosmos. 

Electricity vibrates 3 and its vowels equal 
i — showing it belongs to the First Trinity of 
Action. 

Magnetism occupies a higher spiritual plane 
than does electricity which is devoted to prac- 
tical use while magnetism is a spiritual mes- 
senger. 

So a magnetic person belongs naturally to 
the Higher Trinity as the word vibrates 9 and 
its source is- 11, and its vowels being of 6 value 
finds harmony at its centre, and this attracts 
to himself the things he wants without the ac- 
tive work of the First Trinity being necessary. 
An electric person belongs to the First Trinity 
and vibrates 3 with vowels of 1 value, making 
this one of the many expressions of created 
active things belonging to the 1-2-3 trinity. 

We find the electric 3 person less restful and 

less attractive than the magnetic 9, but the in- 

152 



MAGNETIC OR ELECTRIC? 153 

fiuence thrown out by their active life is stimu- 
lating and valuable. 

When the name vibrates magnetism — 9 or 1 1 
— and the electric force of the body vibrates one 
of the limited numbers, they are more con- 
vincing as writers than as speakers. 

If the birth force is 9 or 11, the personality 
will speak louder than written words. 

If one has a name mixed of both electric and 
magnetic vibrations, he may have power of at- 
traction through action. 



THE WEIGHT 



A have been trying to show, in all the 

troubles of life we have evidently failed 
to adjust ourselves to Nature's law : the 
result of our efforts in the wrong direction be- 
ing to wear out both body and mind. Possibly 
in our mistaken efforts we may have been 

rking directly against Nature. 

Tfce law of life demands experience, and the 
atoms may know the experiences they want to 
meet and will continue to function in their own 
way, until their own growth with the higher 
self changes their rate of conscience. 

Move your thoughts from the body plane, 
taking with you the part you love. 

If you should weigh more than you wish to, 
and are trying to rid yourself of the surplus 
flesh by diet, exercise and medicine, picture 
yourself exactly as you wish to be. with just the 
amount of fleshly raiment you wish to us 

This flesh is supplied by the earth atoms 
and each atom holds the inherent qualities of 
a world. Your soul selected them according 

154 



THE WEIGHT 155 

to the keynote of your spirit force, and you 
are still taking these atoms from the earth and 
returning those not adapted to your use. 

When you meditate upon a subject many 
thoughts not wanted come before your mind 
and try to take possession and drive out the 
ones you desire to keep. These intruders may 
be the thought of others and are not yourself, 
but have been caught in the current of earth 
thoughts. Only by intense concentration upon 
your own thoughts can you drive from you 
these intruders. 

Ten years ago a certain man weighed one 
hundred and ninety-five pounds. He was short 
of stature and wanted to weigh only one hun- 
dred and fifty pounds. He pictured himself 
as weighing one hundred and fifty pounds. 
This represented his real self. The other forty- 
five pounds was a collection of not self which 
had gathered about him as fungus and moss 
gather on trees. 

He saw the philosophy of the thing he 
wanted and told the spirit ruling his body that 
his Real Self weighed exactly one hundred and 
fifty pounds, and the other part clinging to 
him must leave, as it did not belong to him 
but to the Universe, and he wanted it to take 
its own. 



156 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

For a month or two he continued to picture 
himself and think of himself as weighing only 
one hundred and fifty pounds, when his weight 
began to go down until it reached one hundred 
and fifty pounds, and for years did not vary 
from this amount. 

At last he forgot the contract he had made 
with Nature and said, "I do not want to weigh 
one hundred and fifty pounds, I want to weigh 
only one hundred and forty." 

The law of balance he had made with Nature 
was disturbed and he very soon went back to 
one hundred and ninety-five pounds and still 
continues to hold forty- five pounds of not self 
for being untrue to his contract. 

There is no good reason why any one should 
weigh more than he wishes to weigh, but be- 
fore he begins to change his weight he should 
make up his mind as to the weight he wants 
to carry, and then never waver from this 
amount. He need not change his food, but 
always eat sparingly. 

One who vibrates through many paths 
should eat many kinds of food and let Na- 
ture care for it as she will, if the body is not 
clogged by fear and distrust. 

But one thing is necessary. Air vibrates 
i and if breathing is neglected a lack of 



THE WEIGHT 157 

harmony manifests and the man loses con- 
nection with Nature and Nature's spirit 
upon the physical plane. This is the plane that 
prevents man from demonstrating mastership. 
Mastership must begin by his ruling his own 
body. After this power is gained, all else 
will obey him by the power of being. 

One should select a weight whose digit 
shows the same vibration as the birth force. 



THE WEATHER. 



MAXY students of Number Vibration be- 
come expert weather forecasters. 
Some use the days as if they were 
people and in bringing the month, day and year 
combination together, see what kind of a 
gathering they show. 

Should the month vibrate 8, the day 4, and 
the year 8, this combination added gives a digit 
of 2. They consider this as a gathering of 
both matter and mind and look for fog, rain, 
mist and sunshine. A bringing out of the 
storehouse of Nature by the 2, the Spirit of 
the Day. both kinds of conditions which often 
conflict. Earthquakes often occur upon a 2 
day, whose color is gold. 

Others read the weather from trinities. 

Those who read by separate days, see only 
the effect of puting a lot of people together 
dressed in the colors belonging to the constit- 
uent parts, and consider how they would act. 

Those who read by trinities take for example 
a 7 month, day 3, year 9, which added give a 

digit of 1. 

158 



THE WEATHER 159 

In this day we find a 7 which has a balance 
of 3 times 2, and it also holds a 1, giving this 
number a material balance. The day 3, is a 
plane of Nature's complete expression. The 
year digit being 9 holds 3 times 3 and is bal- 
anced in Natural Law. The combination of 
7-3-9 gives a digit of 1, which is the Spirit 
Force of this day, what this day will bring 
forth is registered in the 1. 

Next day's digit will be 2. This day will be 
apt to reproduce in some way the previous day ; 
also the 3 day next following will reproduce 
a combination of the two previous days. 

The 4 digit will be inclined to follow the 
character of the 2. The 5 and 7 days will 
more or less express the 3 day. 

8 will make its own laws and is more un- 
certain than the limited numbers. 

High vibrating numbers like 8-9-1 1-22 in- 
cline to a mystical atmosphere of many colors.

over Nature's secrets, can read her unrevealed

THE BALLIETT SYSTEM VIBRAT- 
ING IN DIFFERENT LANGUAGES. 



THE question is often asked, "How does 
the Balliett System of the Philosophy 
of Number Vibration work when the 
thing is vibrating in some other language than 
English?" 

When one of the first editions of the little 
book, "Success Thru Vibration" was pur- 
chased by a college president in Cuba, he asked 
how the writer harmonized the following: In 
English the name of the Virgin Mary, vibrates 
3, while in Spanish the name Maria vibrates 6. 
The answer given was that the Anglo-Saxon 
race regards the mother of the Saviour as 
"Blessed Mary, Mother of the Saviour of the 
World," and places a rose in loving token at 
the wayside shrine. 

The Latin race says, "Maria, blessed 
Mother, give us what we want, help us in our 
need." 

One race regards her as a 3, the expression 

of the first trinity. The Latin race regards 

160 



BALLIETT SYSTEM IN OTHER LANGUAGES 161 

her as a Cosmic Mather, willing and competent 
to protect and care for her children. The in- 
terested college president wrote back that the 
solution was entirely correct. He had tried 
out words in various languages and found 
their vibrations were true to the way the races 
regarded the things in question. Since that 
time the Author knows travellers have found 
a source of help and enjoyment in vibrating 
everything to see how the inhabitants of the 
country regarded them; also in vibrating dif- 
ferent foods to find those in harmony with their 
own force. 



HELPS BY THE WAY. 



IF the day should come when household wor- 
ries overcome your balance and you cannot 
seem to shake off your worries, fill your 
mind with other thoughts. If you cannot go 
out in the air to walk, use your halls or rooms 
for the purpose. 

First try to feel at the Solar Plexus, back 
of the stomach, a point of contact between 
yourself and the Maker of Heaven and Earth. 
Let the force flow from this point to the right 
hip, and from there through the leg to the 
foot. As your foot touches the ground, say, 
"God." When the force moves the left leg 
and foot say, "is ;" when the right foot touches 
the ground again say, "with," and when the 
left foot comes down say, "us." Repeat this 
in perfect time. Do not lose a count. Any- 
thing which moves the feet should always be 
in 4-4 time. 

Keep your mind fixed upon the source at the 
Solar Plexus and be conscious of it in the hip 
movement, down through the leg to knees and 

ankles until it reaches the ball of the foot. 

162 



HELPS BY THE WAY 163 

Go slowly at first always keeping the 4-4 
time, — do not lose a count but make your feet 
obey your will. 

Never use a personal affirmation as harmony 
comes through the Universal which knows not 
the personal. 

God recognizes the personal, and most in- 
harmonies come from broken physical laws 
which are impersonal. 

The Earth feels blest as you touch it with 
your affirmation and those you meet may catch 
the message. 

Never go to sleep with a worrying thought 
as it will cause unpleasant dreams. Always 
let your last thought be a universal prayer. 
While the physical sleeps, your soul functions 
where you sent it with your last waking 
thought. 

When you awaken in the morning feeling 
"not all there," it has been the fault of your 
conscious self in breaking the unity of body, 
soul and spirit and of not allowing your soul 
to function in Universal Light. 

If you go to sleep with some problem of in- 
harmony and do not function higher than its 
broken law, the day of the morrow will find 
you still with the same problem unsolved. If, 
before going to sleep, you put it in the God- 



164 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

light, the morning will usually bring with it 
the solution. 

If you are not easily obedient to God's way, 
it is better to ask where to find your desire 
than to ask for the gift itself. The law then 
works faster and surer. It will show you 
where it is and give you a chance to work for 
it in ways suited to your path in life. 

Train yourself to go to sleep with your last 
thought upon the Great Shepherd who cares 
for His children. 

A i person should be associated with a 2 or 
3 for business; and for spiritual attainment 
with a 22 or a 9. 

A 2 person for business should be associated 
with a 1 or 3 ; for spiritual growth with an 1 1 
or 9. 

A 3 person should be associated with a 1 or 
2 for business; for spiritual growth with an 
11 or 22, 

A 4 person needs an 11 or 9 to help him. 

A 5 person needs an 11; for spiritual 
growth also a 9. 

A 6 person needs a 3 or a 9 in business — for 
spiritual growth an 11 or 9. 

A 7 needs a 3 or 9 in business ; for spiritual 
help an 11 or 9. 



HELPS BY THE WAY 165 

An 8 should have all the numbers from 1 to 
11. 

A 9 should have them all from 1 to 11. 

An 1 1 should have all from 1 to 22, 

A name number of these various vibrations 
will help to fill the deficiency. 



MUSIC. 

THE unit or keynote of music is 2; the 
vowels contained in the word, u-i, 1 
make a spirit force of 3. One has to dip 
deeply into Nature's stream to catch this col- 
lection and bring it into expression. 

By the power of the will which vibrates 2 
an idea is projected from the one and collected 
by the two ; in music it takes shape as a thought 
form by drawing substance around itself in 
the shape of mind stuff of the Heaven World 
which is tone. 

The stage where a great symphony is to be 
played will be bare until the musicians enter, 
not carrying the music with them but the dif- 
ferent instruments made in accordance with 
Nature's Law, each fashioned and tuned in 
such a way as to interpret the sound drawn 
from the World of Tone. When they leave 
the platform and take with them their instru- 
ments, they leave nothing behind them except 
the memory of the music, showing that the 

tones were neither in the instruments nor in 

166 



MUSIC 167 

the musicians but came from Nature's reservoir 
presided over by what the intellect calls the 2 
force whose place is in the heart of the trinity, 
protected by the creative 1 and the expressive 3. 

We can now hear astral music and over- 
tones, and when we drop our physical bodies 
and ascend far enough we shall hear the 
Music of the Spheres, and when we ascend 
sufficiently, we shall be the music. 

We are told that, "Music is that which is 
NOT, in literature, art or architecture — only 
the latter approaches it the nearest." 

We sometimes hear people while looking 
at works of art, say, "It makes me want to 
sing and dance." The art that can draw 
out this remark must be a true expression of 
Nature. We have the same sensation from 
literature when the 1-2-3 parts are properly 
expressed, and feel it very strongly in Archi- 
tecture where melody, harmony and rhythm 
blend as one. This is only true of real archi- 
tecture and not of merely decorated build- 
ings — those buildings which could be strip- 
ped of their bay-windows and porches and 
the building remain intact. In the buildings 
where the three parts are as one, to destroy 
the decorative parts would be to destroy the 
building. In these the windows and porches 



168 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

are built into the building, and if you take any- 
thing away, you destroy the creative I, the col- 
lection of 2 would be useless, and the expres- 
sion of 3 would be a broken harmony. It would 
remain a building unfit to express Nature's 
harmony, melody and rhythm, which make 
music. 

We find melody vibrates 1 1 ; harmony, 4 ; 
rhythm, 3. So we see that melody is the high- 
est part of music, it is the psychic master and 
teaches every heart in all the vibrations. Har- 
mony is not a perfect number, as it has but 
two planes of 2, which makes it difficult for 
the average mind to understand, but everybody 
loves melody and rhythm. WE find that har- 
mony is the body, rhythm the soul, and melody 
the spirit. 

Every musical composer should pay especial 
attention to his own keynote of birth, for this 
was the first sound his bodily ears heard. For 
instance if his birth force is 9 his keynote is 
D. D is always a free note. 

If the birth note is 1 (C), 2 (D), 3 (E), 4 
(F), 5 (G), 6 (A), 7(B), his note belongs in 
the middle gamut of sound. If the name shows 
as its digit the keynote of a free number 8-9- 
22-11 the air may be played with either sharps 
or flats or both. 



MUSIC 169 

Every person can find his plane in the Coc- 
mos and will do better work if he composes in 
his own key. Some of our best musicians have 
discovered this law after years of wasted 
effort. 

An 8-9-1 1-22 should avoid any kind of un- 
dignified music, remembering always that they 
are teachers of the race and must not lower 
musical standard but rather exalt it to classic 
simplicity. They have reached the plane of 
development where they can take the great 
things and strip them of adornments and show 
them in the beauty of simplicity. 

We find Richard Wagner in name vibrates 
thus, — Richard, 7 ; Wagner, 5 ; giving a keynote 
of 3. He is a good example of the creative 
faculty in music without the simplicity of an 
8-9-1 1-22. 

Any one with a 1-2-3 birth force should 
write descriptive music ; a 4 should write mar- 
tial music — with cries of attack and defiance; 
a 5 fascinating, melodious impersonations ; a 6 
should write music belonging to the Cosmos, 
— the song of the wind, the rain, the playing 
of fairies, and all the musical sounds of nature ; 
a 7 will write an intellectual combination of 
the different forms of music. The 8-9-22-1 1 
will use all these combinations; the 8 will use 



170 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

what the 2 and 4 use with a larger vision and 
hear more overtones. The 9 wants to deal 
with rhythm as found in 3. 9-22-1 1 can write 
symphonies and great music with the aid of 
the lower numbers. The greatest symphonies, 
no doubt, are but an echo of the sublime har- 
monies of their home world. They are simply 
a fringe of coarser woof swayed by sounds 
adapted to our present hearing capacity. 

Thinking men and women today are fast ap- 
proaching an enlargement of the sense percep- 
tions. Soon, the now supernormal will be- 
come fhe normal and what today is the normal 
will appear to be sub-normal. 

The ear should be trained to catch overtones, 
for by such training the enjoyment of music 
will be greatly heightened. 

Dr. Meyers says, "Music is a lost art." 

When man succeeds in finding himself, he 
will become a conscious part of the Music of 
the Spheres. 



PRAYER 

IF the saying that "A king is always upon the 
throne/ ' is true, then there is no time in 
man's existence when he is not making 
obeisance to something ; if to nobody else, then 
it is to himself that he lifts his eyes in admira- 
tion and devotion. 

Deep within the heart of every created thing 
sounds the vibratory note — its keynote — as- 
sumed in obedience to the law of the Universe 
which sees that everything vibrates according 
to its own proper rate. If this Law were 
broken, chaos would result. 

Everything leans upon something higher. 
The mineral disintegrates that the vegetable 
may live ; the vegetable gives itself to the ani- 
mal ; and man reaches out and takes everything 
the world produces, for his own benefit. 

The Spirit attachment to the Spirit of the 

Whole sings in harmonious strains in Nature's 

Choir; his brain, ear and mind may not sense 

the contact, but the music which sounds in 

everything about him, may hold him to higher 

ideals. 

171 



172 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

The question sometime sure to be asked by 
every thoughtful person is, "If everything 
moves according to Law, what effect can prayer 
have upon the Maker of the Heavens and the 
Earth?" "If we are God's creatures, created 
according to his will, why should there be any 
need of prayer? Why not simply trust the 
All-Powerful God?" 

We need to remember that when we are 
trusting, the King God is on the throne and we 
are obedient to his government. This is one 
phase of man's development. But another may 
have no active faith. 

The First Trinity is represented by the num- 
bers 1-2-3, an d those numbers which have come 
out of the 1-2-3 cycle but have not yet attained 
the Higher Trinity, the numbers 4-5-6-7, have 
more doubts and uncertainties than those vi- 
brating the Master Numbers of the Higher 
Trinity, 8-9-22-1 1. 

The 4-5-6-7's are seeking the faith which 
abides and find it in active service and prayers 
of all kinds. 

Some people pray until their hearts bleed 
over the non-fulfillment of their petitions; 
others seem to touch the fount of fulfillment 
with little effort, having more natural faith. 

Men are apt to forget that they function on 



PRAYER 173 

three planes — body, soul and spirit, and that 
while these three planes meet as one, each has 
a different Law active in its government. 

The material or body plane is the World and 
it is governed by Nature and her Rulers. 

Consider that they own that plane and in 
order to govern it, man must rise above it. 

Besides this Nature Plane he has two others, 
the planes of his Soul and his Spirit. 

Man may demand certain things from 
Nature, such as money ; power and worldly at- 
tainments ; but when he possesses them, he will 
find they desire to rule him, and will continue 
to do so until he in thought releases them to go 
back to their own plane. 

Nature submits only to the moving force 
from above. The voice of demand is of the 
world, and acts through a finely concentrated 
physical force, which gets what it demands, 
but Nature will not let go its hold, and when 
vigilance slumbers her treasures return to her. 

Anything we consider our own — that which 
is known as "My," will never hold on the physi- 
cal plane; it will dissolve for it is not abiding. 

Things such as, "My wife," "My child," "My 
house," "My clothes," are all borrowed from 
Nature and will return to her domain. You 
will have to give them up. 



174 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

So we see it is a mistake to pray for "My" on 
any plane. We must pray for "Our," not 
"My." 

If the body says, "I have a headache," and 
you are not strong enough to destroy this ani- 
mal suggestion of the physical plane, try to 
realize that there are many other aching heads 
in the world who need help as much as you do. 
So say something like this, "Our Father, in 
thy own way, send healing force to all those 
who have headaches," and Our Father in 
Heaven will heed the prayer. 

After praying open your body and mind to 
receive the force you have scientifically set in 
motion. 

When you are perfect master of your own 
body, you will be the master from above who 
will control Nature when she has been taught 
to obey you. Until that time comes, your 
prayer must be scientific and the "My," must 
be eliminated. Cures made on the physical 
plane like all things else are not lasting; they 
change and fade. 

Prayer shows by its vibration that it is an 
ii, the same vibration as the Messiah. Jesus 
holds in his heart the vowels of 8 — a mystic. 
Prayer holds in its heart the vowels a-e of 6 
value. 



PRAYER 175 

Jesus held two masterships, the highest 11, 
and in his heart the free vibration of 8. 

Prayer is the messenger of the Cosmic 
Mother which vibrates 6 and it is the Great 
Messenger that calls the attention of the soul 
to the body. 

Thus prayers built upon "our" instead of 
"my," made by those who are big enough to 
place their own desires in the heart of the Uni- 
verse, not only have their prayers answered 
but they also bless others, and are thus ful- 
filling God's law in making their bodies a fit 
temple for the use of the nations.

This name is a very competent one as the ma- 
terial composing it amounts to 21, whose digit 
is 3. All three's hold in their system the trinity 
of 1, 2, 3, but they often fritter or sleep its 
usefulness away. The color of the abiding 
hovering Spirit of 3 comes in the gold shades. 
3 lacks the illuminating I of 9. The Spirit 
urge found in its vowel e is the cry of Crea- 
tion. Its note is E.

The keynote of John Tyson Moore is 8, 
which is you. A living, breathing being who 
is as much an 8 in thought as in name as mathe- 
matics rule the universe. You see, when you 
see, as you should see, with the eye and judg- 
ment of a Mystic Master that when false ideas 
rule you see with limited vision, and your mys- 
tic strength degenerates into schemes and plots 
to gain the material end, you belong to the be- 
ginning of events, rather than their close. 
You see the plan of the whole, as the idea is 
presented, before the details are worked out. 
This comes from the Spirit quality shown by 
the keynote of your whole name, and it mutely 



STUDY OP JOHN TYSON MOORE 179 

speaks for your rate of consciousness. If you 
shirk your responsibility you will vibrate lower 
and your perceptions grow dim and faulty. 

The vowels of whole name are 6, 6, 6, 6, 5, 
added make 29, added again make 1 1 ; this 
shows your Spirit, urge. As you have four 
sixes and one five we must read its message as 
coming from the Cosmos in the Christ Spirit 
as the five and eleven show. Its strength and 
weakness lies in the repeating of the sixes so 
many times they strike the note A four times 
in succession, ending with the Christ Note of 
E. The great eleven Master dwelling in your 
heart strikes the whole gamut of C-C octave. 
That touches everything within the Planet. 
This fills you with Spiritual unrest — and yet 
Joy. Such as you sometimes feel when watch- 
ing a Sunset Sky; as its brilliant colors fade 
you wonder as its glories pass what it means to 
tell you. So it is when the Master calls to you 
from the high plane. You wonder what it 
means. No one can tell you all of your mes- 
sage. It must come to you through the Silence 
that words cannot reach; it registers in your 
heart and tells you what to do. 

The color of 8 is Canary. Many colors are 
found in the composition of this color, as also 
in the Opal, that vibrates 8 it represents the

The keynote of your birth is 4. When you 
came to earth the fourth vibration was the 
dominant one. When in the Spirit world you 
desired to be born that day, your soul held the 
wisdom your infant body could not express. 
The Spirit force of the Universe worked ac- 
cording to your plan of life mapped out in the 
world beyond sight. The Father let you come 
to earth in the vibration you desired, to aid 
you on to perfection of body, soul and Spirit. 
Your first breath was filled with your four 
forces, it tuned you as an instrument is tuned 
by a musician from center to circumference. 
The first note your ears heard was the note 
of F. It was carried in colors of Blue and 
Green and they claim you and you claim them. 



STUDY OF JOHN TYSON MOORE 181 

At that time you were attached to nature by 
your body vibration and the fourth force be- 
came your Natural Mother, who sees that you 
are clothed and fed. Two thousand years be- 
fore Christ, Kama was the Hero, only because 
"he was the friend of every living thing.'' He 
fulfilled Nature's law. 

Your body plane being 4 and your conscious- 
ness 8, it's a difficult task to see why the per- 
sonal 4 must be as expansive as the conscious- 
ness of 8 expects you to be. Your desire to 
hold to the "My" and your consciousness says 
don't. "It's a dissolving quality, find the joy 
of the one." Your four force is so vital it has 
slight patience with the inner teachings so dear 
to the 8 Mystic. Your birth force loves the 
printed page, beautifully and expensively 
bound to have for your very own and for the 
use of your friends. 

When you go to a concert, where a program 
is played, your four force is restless until you 
are aware of the full program and the authors 
of the same. Your other part, the eight, says, 
give me the harmony, melody and rythm with 
its overtones that seem like a link in the chain 
leading to the universal sounds. Your four 
force makes you defend anything that is yours. 
You will fight for a friend until you grow 



182 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

angry as well as everyone else, not excepting 
your friend. But your friends love, respect 
and forgive what in some others would be un- 
forgiveable. 

You have one easy point in your favor. The 
day digit of your birth is the same as your 
Spirit force. Ofttimes we wander into the 
material day force and function there, as yours 
is the same as your birth path digit, you will 
not wander. You will no doubt in some way 
make a 22 vibration through your four force 
and somehow register it in your name in busi- 
ness or marriage. 

J. T. Moore vibrates lower than full name. 
J. Moore vibrates 4, the value of your birth 
vibration. T. Moore opens the door of 5. No 
doubt you have many more names that you 
have used and that tell of opened doors. It is 
well to have all vibrations opened in your char- 
acter. 

Should you attract a wife with a master 
number you could not have done so until the 
vibration had been made by you, and you reg- 
ister it as a part of yourself. An 11, 22 or 9 
are good friends for your growth. Your 
vowels urge the 11. You will make a good 
corporation lawyer, where material things 
must be adjusted, as you belong to water do-

main and to the seen side of life on Nature's 
plane. 

Buy all things wanted that vibrate the four 
force. Attract the things found in the eight 
when another vibration is approaching, they 
will appear with things and events bearing 
their numbers. You will work for things 
bearing the 4 vibration. The 8 may come as 
gifts or easily gained. You come to work and 
are happier when you are active, no matter 
how you complain and the world expects a 
great deal of you; and you have it to give. 

Find your jewels, trees, flowers, musicians, 
diseases, kind of fabrics vibrating with you. 
Also hotels, states, counties and all things by 
taking their numbers as you do your name. 
"The Balliett Books" go into this subject more 
exhaustively, but you can make your own book 
by using the scientific principle of analysis of 
words as found in this system. 



A Character Study. 

By the following method find out how many 
paths have been opened for you from your 
birth to the present time. 

Take all the names any one has ever called 
you and which you have accepted, or any name 



i84 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

you have been known by in business or friend- 
ship, find out what vibration is lacking, then 
build upon it until that one also opens. 

The following character study is used in 
order that you may see how many paths this 
woman has tried, and that you may also see 
that the weakness present is in her not having 
made the 6 vibration, which no doubt is with- 
held until the Government of the Universe 
registers her as the friend of every living crea- 
ture. 

Do not think of the person, but use this 
simply as a study of Scientific Number Vibra- 
tion.

press in Unity all things found in the Cosmos." 

As she had a Master Number in name and 
none in birth she must depend upon her own 
Higher Self, in this life, for help and instruc- 
tion, with the aid of the Cosmos. If she is 
untrue, the door closes and she stands alone 
to buffet with the forces of Nature. If she 
stands firmly as a friend of the Universe and 
of every living creature contained in the Uni- 
verse, she will help in the government of the 
Nation and the Universe will be her friend. 

This child was called by her family and 
friends- —

She married Lorenzo Dow Balliet vibrat-

A part of the Balliett family spell their name 
with one "t," the others with two. 

Lorenzo Dow Balliett, Medical Doctor vi- 
brates 6-i i. 

After marriage, ignorant of the Law of Vi- 
brating Numbers, she called herself Joey D. 
Balliet, making her a 3 consciousness. 

The Government of the Universe knew she 
had not sinned away her 11, and moved her 
husband's people to dislike the childish name 
of "Joey" and change it to Josie. 

Josie vibrates 22 

Tosie D. Balliet 22-11 

Later on when she came to know about 
Number Vibration she thought this last name 
too high in vibration for health and activity, 
and used the Balliet with two t's instead of one, 
making her now Josie D. Balliett=22-4. 

The degree of our responsibility is always 






A CHARACTER STUDY 187 

shown by our name and its vibration proclaims 
pur character as we are known in that place. 

Do not think of the individual of this study. 
It was placed here only for your help in the 
study of her books. Find your own "open 
doors" in this way. 

A man marrying a wife has earned the vi- 
bration of her name, or she could not be his 
wife nor he her husband. Business often 
opens doors by their names, if they embody a 
part of the self. All vibrations should be 
opened and kept open by the key of fidelity 
which is the only open path. 

We do not use the Mr. or Mrs. in getting 
the vibration as both vibrate 3; except when 
using the last name alone as Mr. Smith. Dr. 
Smith vibrates 9. 

In contrast to this study with its varied 
paths, note the wonderful concentrated work 
of John Wanamaker, whose keynote is 8, no 
doubt today he is the world's greatest mer- 
chant. 

By looking over these various vibrations it 
will be seen that although her birth vibration 
is 6, she has never been called by any name 
with that vibration. She must lower her 
ideals or ascend to greater heights. 

After we have once opened a door it is our 






188 THE DAY OF WISDOM 

duty to find the path which leads to its height. 

Every door which is opened is a gift of the 
Spirit for fidelity gained in work for the race. 

Neither the Universe nor man has power to 
close these doors. God holds the keys. You 
may pass them by unnoticed, but if you live 
in the Spirit, when the time comes for your 
development by means of any of these paths, 
the inner voice will call from the heights and 
you enter to find what is your own. 

This all takes place according to Natural 
Law in the striking of the key-note of the path 
you have won.
